Lamb Meatballs with Indian Curry Sauce 

lb American lamb

garlic cloves, finely minced

salt

garam masala

mint

ghee, butter

shallot, diced

garlic-

ginger,

tsp fresh turmeric, grated (or ½ teaspoon ground turmeric)

tablespoon garam masala spice

fennel seeds

fenugreek leaves

tomato,

13.5 oz coconut milk (not lite)

brown sugar sugar

½ teaspoon salt, more to taste

cayenne,

Place ground lamb, shallot, garlic, salt, garam masala and mint in a bowl and mix well, using your hands. Using wet hands, form into 1 ½ inch wide balls. ( about 10 meatballs)

Heat a large skillet with olive oil. Begin searing the lamb meatballs, until most sides are nicely browned, about 10 minutes. ( You can finish cooking them through in the sauce, so just brown them at this point)

At the same time you could start the sauce ( or wait and use the same pan).

Heat ghee in a skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and cook 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and ginger and cook two more minutes. Add all the spices and then the tomato and its juices. Cook 1 minutes. Add the coconut milk and simmer gently for 3-4 minutes. Add the sugar, salt and cayenne. Taste and adjust salt and heat.

Add the lamb meatballs to the sauce, coating well. Simmer gently until the lamb meatballs are cooked through ( 5-10 minutes). Serve over your choice of rice, cauliflower rice, or baby spinach.

I didn't have mint, and decided to one drop of organic peppermint essential oil into the meat ball mix and it was delightful!  I did cut back on the spices a bit as I am serving little kids.  We all loved this meal and will make it again!

I made this recipe and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was easy to make and delicious. My son-in-law is from Sri Lanka and loves lamb. He had this for lunch and gave it a thumbs up! Thank you for your recipes. I can count on them being accurate, delicious and healthy.

I just made this recipe for Father’s Day and my husband said it was the best dish that I’ve ever made! Thank you!

I made this for dinner last night and my husband and I both LOVED it. I didn't have any mint so I left that out, and I don't like coconut milk in my curry, so I replaced it with 1 cup of cream and about 1/4 cup splash of skim milk (so it wouldn't be too thick). The meatballs and the curry itself for delicious. We served it with freshly toasted naan. It was delicious!

Sooooooooo good❤️!  I will make this again!  Simple to make and has big flavour!! I made the squash/potato curry as a veg dish and omg amazing flavours! I also made the naan which Everyone raved about!  Lots of ummmm and compliments about all of these dishes.  I’ve been cooking from this site for years and years.  First review...I’ve never been disappointed.  Sylvia you nourish my families body and my soul with your blog. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻Gratitude.

I made this dish using Sylvia's lentil balls and it worked amazingly, I recommend trying it if you're looking to make it veggie/vegan. The lentil balls are my go to meatball alternative now, I just change up the herbs and spices depending on the dish I'm using them in. Yum!

This was one of the most successful recipes I've tried in over a year! Delicious, easy to make, well-balanced, and a big hit with my guest. Only changed one thing: instead of frying, I baked the meatballs to medium rare, then added them to the sautee pan during sauce prep to gently finish cooking.

Also, served with both <span class="tasty-link" data-tasty-link-href="https://www.feastingathome.com/how-to-make-cauliflower-rice/">cauliflower rice</span> and spinach (perfect accompaniments) as well as warm mini NaaN breads.

In many ways, this turned out great! However, some comments:

In making the meatballs, it's a good idea to include an egg. The last time I made a meatball recipe that also didn't call for eggs, the meatballs fell apart. This time I added the egg, and they came out perfectly (the eggs act as binders).  It is also probably best to use fresh mint rather than dry. It's perfect for the lamb.

I used a large onion for the sauce, onions generally form the basis of a curry dish, and a single shallot just didn't feel as though it were enough. I also made my own garam masala, and it tasted great in this dish.  However, as someone else on this board pointed out, garam masala is generally used as a finishing spice in most Indian recipes, not as the main spice for the dish. So I'm not sure how well store-bought garam masala (which ranges widely in terms of ingredients and flavour) will work.

But all that said, this came out great, and using my homemade garam masala as the main spice gave it a unique and delicious flavour.

Love this used yoghurt instead of coconut milk as didn’t have any and tinned tomato’s instead of fresh but it did not deter from the taste and flavour. Thank you for sharing the recipe x

So yummy good.  I did not make meatballs cause I'm lazy. I sauteed the ground lamb with the shallots and spices.  Made the sauce in another skillet then added the lamb mixture to the sauce. This is so so good.  Comfort food!
