To make the dip, blend the peppers, yogurt, and spices in a blender. Season with salt and chill until ready to serve.
To make the meatballs, mix the meat with the onion, eggs, Parmesan, thyme, salt, and pepper. Form into 8 meatballs. Place a prune in the center and reform back into a ball. Flatten slightly. Put the sesame seeds on a plate. Press each side of the meatballs into the sesame seeds and shake off the excess.
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and gently fry, adjusting the temperature to prevent the sesame seeds from scorching, until cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes (a thermometer inserted into the center of the ball will read 165F). Drain on paper towels. Serve warm with the dip.
