Prepare yogurt sauce; cover and refrigerate untill needed. In a bowl
combine beef, lamb, mint, bread crumbs, eggs, onion, salt, and pepper; mix
well. Shape mixture into walnut sized meatballs; roll in flour and shake
off excess. Heat oil in wide frying pan over medium high heat. Add
meatballs, a few at a time, and brown on all sides; remove from pan when
browned. Discard drippings. Return meatballs to pan ; add basil along with
tomatoes (break up with a spoon) and thier liquid. Bring to a boil;
coverand reduce heat. Simmer untill meatballs are tender (about 15
minutes). Pass yogurt sauce at table. Serve with buttered noodles. Makes 4
or 5 servings.
Yogurt Sauce: In a small bowl combine 1 cup unflavored yogurt, 1 clove
garlic (minced or pressed),and 1/4 cup chopped parsley; mix well

Notes: I omitted the flour, put the shaped meatballs in a jelly roll pan
and broiled them instead of pan frying.
