Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a roasting tray, toss peppers with 2 tbsp of the olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, then roast in the oven for 35 minutes or until soft. Transfer the peppers to a bowl and cover with cling film to cool. (You can peel them if you want but it's not necessary.) Place them in a blender or food processor with their roasting juices and add the rest of the sauce ingredients. Process until smooth, then taste and adjust the salt if necessary. Set aside.
- For the meatballs, place a heavy, non-stick frying pan over a high heat and throw in the corn kernels. Toss them in the hot pan for 2-3 minutes until lightly blackened. Remove and leave to cool.
- Soak the bread in cold water for a minute, then squeeze well and crumble into a large bowl. Add all the rest of the ingredients except the sunflower oil and mix well with your hands.
- Pour a 1/5 inch (5mm) depth of sunflower oil into your heavy frying pan. Allow it to heat up well and then fry about a teaspoonful of the turkey mix in it. Remove, let cool a little and then taste. Adjust the amount of salt and pepper in the uncooked mixture to your liking.
- With wet hands, shape the turkey mix into balls, about the size of golf balls. Cook them in small batches in the hot oil, turning them around in the pan until they are golden brown allover. Transfer to an oven tray, place in the oven at 400°F and cook for about 5 minutes. When you press one with your finger, the meat should bounce back. If unsure, break one open to check that it is cooked inside. Serve hot or warm, with the pepper sauce on the side.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh ground turkey. If you can't find ground turkey, you can use ground chicken or beef.
- Be sure to season the meatballs well. The spices in this recipe are just a suggestion, so feel free to adjust them to your taste.
- Don't overmix the meatball mixture. Overmixing will make the meatballs tough.
- If you don't have a baking sheet, you can cook the meatballs in a large skillet over medium heat.
- The meatballs are done cooking when they are cooked through and no longer pink in the center. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the center of a meatball. The internal temperature should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Serve the meatballs with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular choices include marinara sauce, teriyaki sauce, or sweet and sour sauce.
