Method

6 steps · 50 minutes

Soak 2 of the chipotle chiles in 2 tbsp of the adobo sauce and blitz to a paste. Slice the remaining 2 chiles and reserve for the broth.
Mix the beef, pork, eggs, almond flour, half the mint, half the onion (grated), 2 garlic cloves (grated), the chipotle paste, oregano, cumin, salt and pepper. Roll into 16 meatballs the size of a walnut.
Heat the oil in a wide pot over medium-high. Brown the meatballs in batches, about 2 minutes total, until they have a crust. Lift them out.
Add the rest of the sliced onion and the remaining garlic to the pot. Cook 3 minutes until soft, then add the sliced chipotles and the diced tomato. Cook 4 minutes more.
Pour in the stock, scrape up the browned bits, and bring to a simmer. Drop the meatballs back in and cook gently for 12 minutes, until they are cooked through.
Add the zucchini, sliced into half moons, and simmer 3 minutes more. Taste and salt. Ladle into bowls and scatter the remaining mint and cilantro over the top.
