Greek meatballs

Knead the listed ingredients into a meatball dough. Then make a test dumpling and cook it (this goes very quickly in the microwave). Add more salt or more of the other spices to taste. However, the dough will still cook a bit, so be careful with the cumin. With wet hands, form about 20 smaller oval meatballs and fry them in hot oil for 6-8 minutes until browned. Make sure the keftedes are nicely browned on all sides. Serve with lemon wedges.
