popping pomegranates
william saroyan described his mother's meatballs, studded with pomegranate berries
(an Armenian dish)
so years ago while living with a considerable number of pomegranate trees i made up a recipe of meatballs with pomegranate jewels
a lingering memory
whilst enjoying the last of the season's pomegranate crop i got some ground lamb, spiced it up with cinnamon, cumin, coriander, and cayenne ala Elizabeth David's apples stuffed with spiced lamb and threw in a couple of handfuls of pomegranate berries
fried the meat balls up in some butter/olive oil
pop
as the heat increased the berries on the outside of the meat balls began to explode
they popped right out of the pan
like popcorn
wow
hellzapopping kinda recipe
