Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F
- In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the meatballs and mix gently with your hands or a spoon.
- Shape into approximately 1 tbsp sized balls and arrange on a parchment lined tray.
- Bake in oven for 10 minutes or fry in batches in a skillet until browned. If oven baked they won't brown as much but you can cook them all at once to save time.
- While the meatballs are baking or frying start the sauce by adding the red curry paste to a large saucepan or saute pan heated over medium-high heat. Stir and fry for one minute.
- Add both cans of coconut milk, peanuts, baked or fried meat balls, and lime leaves, if using, or grated lime zest. Bring to a boil then turn down the heat and simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce is thickened slightly.
- Add the stock, brown sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, peas and red pepper slices. Let simmer 5 more minutes.
- Remove from heat and add reserved basil and cilantro leaves. Serve with Jasmine rice or noodles of your choice and fresh lime wedges.
MEATBALLS IN PEANUT CURRY SAUCE
Thick canned coconut milk tames the fire in this curry. The brand Chao Koh is recommended because it develops a thick, creamy layer on top if you don't shake the can before opening it.

Steps:
- Put the flour on a plate. Put the beef in a bowl, sprinkle with the salt and pepper, and mix well. Shape the beef into small, firm balls about 1 inch in diameter; you'll get 32 to 40. Roll the meatballs in the flour, dusting off the excess.
- Line a plate with paper towels. In a wok or frying pan, heat the oil on high until it's hot. Fry the garlic until browned, about 1 minute; remove and set aside. Add the meatballs and sear them on high heat, stirring and tilting the pan, until they're browned evenly and cooked through, about 5 minutes; do this in batches, if necessary. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the meatballs to the paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- If no oil remains in the pan, add 2 tsp. and fry the red curry paste so it releases its aromas, about 2 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon to prevent sticking. Add the reserved garlic and the solidified coconut milk and then stir in the peanut butter. Cook and stir to get a smooth, uniform consistency, about 1 minute. Taste and add fish sauce, sugar, or more curry paste to taste; the sauce shouldn't be too sweet.
- Return the meatballs to the pan with the sauce and simmer over low heat until they're hot, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with the mint or basil sprinkled on top.

Tips for Making Meatballs in Peanut Curry Sauce:
- Use good quality ground meat: A mixture of pork and beef works well, but you can also use all beef or all pork. Make sure the meat is fresh and has a good fat content, as this will help keep the meatballs moist.
- Season the meatballs well: Don't be afraid to use plenty of spices and herbs in your meatballs. This is what will give them their flavor. Some good options include garlic, onion, ginger, cumin, coriander, and paprika.
- Cook the meatballs thoroughly: Make sure the meatballs are cooked all the way through before adding them to the sauce. This will help prevent them from falling apart.
- Use a good quality peanut butter: The peanut butter is one of the key ingredients in this sauce, so it's important to use a good quality brand. Look for a peanut butter that is made with 100% peanuts and no added sugar or oil.
- Simmer the sauce: The sauce should be simmered for at least 30 minutes, or until it has thickened and the flavors have had a chance to meld together.
- Serve the meatballs with rice or noodles: Meatballs in peanut curry sauce is a great dish to serve with rice or noodles. The rice or noodles will help to soak up the delicious sauce.
Conclusion:
