THAI CHICKEN MEATBALL CURRY (SLOW COOKER)



Thai Chicken Meatball Curry (Slow Cooker) image

From "150 Best Indian, Thai, Vietnamese and More Slow Cooker Recipes" by Sunil Vijayakar. I actually had ground turkey and that worked beautifully in this recipe. I also modified the recipe to eliminate the frying, which also worked out really well, and am posting both versions. This is rather spicy, so if you are uncertain reduce the number of chile peppers or amount of curry paste.

Time 5h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 3/4 lbs ground chicken or 1 3/4 lbs ground turkey
2/3 cup fresh breadcrumb (I actually used panko)
3/4 cup chopped cilantro, divided
1/4 cup chopped lemongrass (I used lemongrass paste)
3 long red chili peppers, minced
2 tablespoons oil (optional)
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
1 tablespoon tomato paste
salt, to taste (I used none)
ground black pepper, to taste (I used none)

Steps:

  • Mix chicken or turkey, breadcrumbs, half of the cilantro, lemongrass and chile peppers in a large bowl, combining thoroughly.
  • If not frying, drop walnut-sized meatballs into a 4 qt slow cooker (I coat with a little oil to make cleanup easier). Cover and cook on High for about 1 hour to set the meatballs. (For all I know you don't need to do this - it might work just as well with the sauce added immediately - but this is how I did it).
  • Combine the remaining ingredients except the cilantro in a small bowl; pour over the meatballs, reduce to Low and cook for 4 hours, or cook on High for 2 hours.
  • If frying, form the meat into walnut-sized meatballs. Heat oil in a large skillet and quickly fry the meatballs until browned. Transfer to slow cooker.
  • Make the sauce as in Step 3 and pour into the frying pan, stirring to scrape up the fond; pour over the meatballs and cook on Low for 6 hours or on High for 3 hours.
  • Serve immediately with steamed rice, garnished with the remaining cilantro.
