For a classic warming curry dinner, make this butter chicken next! [convertkit form=1656505]
Onions, garlic, and ginger: This aromatic trio forms the flavor base of both the curry and the meatballs. Crushed tomatoes: Adds a rich tomato base with a little tang. Creamy base: Use plain yogurt, whipping cream, coconut milk, or cashew cream – You can use whichever you have on hand and best suits your diet. All of them are delicious! Almond butter or tahini: Introduces nutty undertones. Brown sugar or coconut sugar: Balances out the curry with a subtle sweetness. From the spice rack: A blend of curry powder, cumin, ground coriander, and sea salt. Oil: For sauteing. Meat: Use ground beef, pork, or lamb – or, a combination! Fish sauce: For a umami note in the meatballs.
The flavor has been toned down enough that it doesn’t compete with the curry sauce – but they’re still delicious on their own! Make sure you mince the onion, ginger, and garlic until they’re almost a paste to help keep the meatballs tender. Another tip is to avoid packing them tightly. You want to use a gentle hand and avoid really squishing them together. Easy does it!
