Number Of Ingredients 20

900g/2lbs ground pork, turkey, chicken or a combination
1/2 cup fresh basil, finely chopped, reserve 1/4 cup for sauce
2 tbsp cilantro, finely chopped, plus 1/2 cup whole leaves for sauce
1 tbsp Thai red curry paste, plus more for sauce
1 tbsp fresh lime juice, plus more for sauce
2 tsp fish sauce, plus more for sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce, plus more for sauce
1/4 cup Thai red curry paste
2 cans coconut milk (400 ml/14 oz cans)
3/4 cup roasted, unsalted, peanuts ground or finely chopped
2 lime leaves (optional) or grated zest of one lime
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup fish sauce
2 tbsp soy sauce
3 tbsp lime juice, plus lime wedges for garnish
1 red pepper, sliced
1 cup frozen green peas
1/2 cup cilantro leaves
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped

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.

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.

Yield Yields 32 to 40 meatballs.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1-1/2 tsp. coarse salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 lb. ground beef, medium lean (80 or 85%)
2 Tbs. vegetable oil; more if necessary
4 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
1 Tbs. red curry paste (I like Krung Gaeng Ped brand); more to taste
1 cup canned coconut milk (refrigerate the can, don't shake it, and use the thick cream at the top)
2 Tbs. chunky peanut butter
2 tsp. fish sauce (nam pla) or to taste
1-1/2 Tbs. sugar or to taste
1 tsp. chopped fresh mint or basil leaves for garnish

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.
