This is a really quick to prepare French dish if using pre-made meatballs. In essence it's meatballs in coconut milk flavoured with mild curry spice and plenty of paprika.
Ingredients:
500g pre-made meatballs
1 handful of cashew nuts
250g peeled and diced tomatoes
1 tsp ground cumin
200ml coconut milk
1 tsp ground ginger
2 tbsp of olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
50ml of water
1 tsp curry powder
Parsley, coarsely chopped, to garnish (about 2 tbsp)
Salt, to taste
Method:
Place a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once hot add the oil and use to fry the meatballs stirring often, until browned all over.
Add the peeled and diced tomatoes, along with the coconut milk, water, ginger, cumin, curry powder and paprika. Stir well to combine then season to taste with salt.
