Preparation:
Beat the egg, grind the cumin and coriander seeds if whole, chop the onion and cilantro, mince the garlic, and crush the pistachios.
3

Mix the meatballs:
Combine all ingredients and mix well.
(If you don't mind getting your hands dirty, using your hands is the most traditional and quickest method.)
📍Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes.
4

Shape:
Form the mixed ground meat into balls (wet your hands with water for easier handling) and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5

Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes.
6

Finishing touch:
You can eat them right after baking, but if you want a bit of a charred look, you can pan-fry them briefly.
7

Finished product. (The sauce below is something I mixed up randomly (ketchup + soy sauce paste). Feel free to choose your own condiments.)
