Curried Turkey Meatballs Recipes

Steps:

• Season the turkey mince and shape into mini meatballs, about the size of a large cherry. Heat the oil in your widest pan, add the meatballs and cook, rolling them around the pan, for 8 mins until brown all over. Meanwhile, in a food processor, blend the onion, ginger, garlic, coriander stalks and 2 tbsp of the reserved pineapple juice to a paste.
• Push the meatballs to one side of the pan, tip the onion mixture into the space and cook for a few mins until softened. Add the curry paste and stir for 1 min, coating the meatballs. Add the ground almonds, coconut milk, pineapple chunks, another 2 tbsp of the reserved pineapple juice and a little seasoning. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 mins until thickened a little. Serve with basmati rice and naan bread.

Steps:

• Make the meatballs: mix the mince with 1 tsp curry paste and seasoning. Shape into walnut-size meatballs. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Fry the meatballs for 5 mins, turning until they are browned all over.
• Heat the remaining curry paste in a saucepan. Add the onion and fry over a low heat for about 5 mins, until soft - be careful not to burn the paste (add a splash of water if you need to).
• Pour in the stock and coconut milk, and bring to the boil. Turn the heat down to low and add the meatballs. Cook for 10 mins, or until the turkey is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Add the sugar snaps and tomatoes, and cook for another 2 mins. Scatter with the almonds and coriander, if you have any, and serve with rice.
