Curried Meatballs

Hello Friends! We had several requests for recipes based on a recent social media post that featured images of our recent kitchen adventures. This curried meatball recipe was created completely off the cuff but turned out really well! We will probably tweak it because its what we do :) however we think it was pretty good for a first attempt thanks to the wonderful curry spice blend we used. Caveat, as per our usual, we measured the spices and other seasonings by eye so please feel free to adjust any or all amounts to suit your own taste.


 Curried Meatballs in Creamy Coconut Sauce


MEATBALLS:


1 lb ground meat. We used beef but I think pork or chicken would be fantastic as well

1 large egg

1 tsp curry powder -we used a mild Malaysian ginger curry blend with ginger being the primary spice but it also contains cumin, coriander, cardamom, celery powder, chili powder, cinnamon, cloves, turmeric and black pepper. A nice red Thai curry powder would be a good alternative.

1 tsp sea salt

1 tsp dried parsley flakes or 1 tbsp of fresh chopped parsley

1/4 tsp ground black pepper

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)






Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil. Combine all ingredients in a medium sized bowl and hand mix until ingredients are thoroughly integrated. Roll meat into 2" balls. Space out the balls on the baking sheet and cook for approximately 30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 F degrees*



*In our experience, an air fryer does a great job cooking meatballs.









SAUCE:


14 oz coconut milk

8 oz of stock- we used chicken stock but bone broth or vegetable stock would be great

2 tbsp of curry powder

salt and pepper to taste

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes



While the meatballs are cooking, add coconut milk, stock, curry powder, salt and pepper to a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently until it begins to bubble. Reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for 10 minutes, stirring often. We added some cooking liquid from the meatballs to the sauce, about an ounce for extra flavor.


When the meatballs are done, we added them to the sauce and continued to simmer and stir for another 10 minutes.


We served our dish over spaghetti squash that was broiled and seasoned with olive oil, salt and pepper and then we garnished the dish with red pepper flakes and chopped scallions but obviously your favorite rice or noodles and garnish would work too.




We LOVE feedback so please let us know what you think about this recipe, our blog, or anything that is on your mind :) Enjoy!
