Craving a dish that's both comforting and bursting with vibrant flavours? Look no further than this delightful meatball curry.

What you need:

500g minced beef

2 tomatoes blended in 1 cup plain yoghurt

1 medium onion, sliced 

150g tomato paste 

4-5 whole green chillies 

Juice of 1 lime

1 egg 

1 tablespoon garlic ginger paste 

1 tablespoon curry powder 

1 tablespoon ground ginger 

1 tablespoon black pepper 

Salt to taste 

2-3 tablespoons vegetable oil for frying 

1/2 bunch fresh coriander 

What to do:

In a medium bowl, mix the minced meat, half of the garlic and ginger paste, half of the black pepper, half of the curry powder, salt, ground ginger, half of the lime juice and half of the chopped coriander.

Mix well with your hands until everything is combined. Using your hands, mould some meatballs. You should get quite a few medium-sized meatballs.

 In a wok over a medium heat, add some oil and sauté the onions until soft. Add the garlic and ginger paste, curry powder, black pepper, tomato paste and blended tomatoes with yoghurt.

Bring to the boil, add salt to taste and whole green chillies, then add the meatballs one by one to the curry.

Adjust the flavours with lime juice, sprinkle with fresh chopped coriander, then cook until the curry thickens and the meatballs are cooked through. Serve with plain rice. Enjoy!
