Meatball Curry

Cooking oil

Onions (chopped)

cloves

Fresh ginger (minced)

tbsp Tomato paste ((or 1 large tomato chopped small))

tbsp Bottle masala

Coconut milk (Or ground fresh coconut)

Cilantro (Chopped coriander)

Lemon juice

Chicken stock (or water)

Ground beef

½ tsp Garlic powder garlic

Salt

Dry breadcrumbs

cilantro

In a skillet over medium-high heat, saute the onions in oil until translucent. Then add the ginger and garlic and saute another 30 seconds to a minute.

Next, add the tomato paste (or chopped tomatoes) and bottle masala. Cook on medium heat for 2 minutes. Pro tip - if necessary add a few tablespoons of water to prevent the bottle masala from burning.

Add the coconut milk (or ground coconut), chicken stock, and chopped cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and bring to a boil on low heat.

In a medium bowl, add the ground beef, garlic, salt, breadcrumbs, and chopped cilantro.  Combine well and shape into small 1 1/2-inch balls. Pro tip - do not over mix the ground beef mixture otherwise the meatballs will be tough.

Lower the heat and place all the meatballs in the curry. Cover and cook on a low simmer for 10 minutes. Then shake the pan or gently stir the pan. Cover and cook for another 10 minutes. Pro tip - I like to shake the pan so the meatballs will turn over and cook the other side. Or, stir carefully to prevent breaking the meatballs.

Once the meatballs are cooked. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add the lemon juice and garnish with more chopped cilantro.
