Lamb Korma Meatball Curry

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This Lamb Korma Meatball Curry is an easy and seriously delicious weeknight family meal that everyone will enjoy. Juicy lamb mince is combined with aromatic spices and fresh coriander then cooked in a luscious creamy almond Korma sauce. I utilise a store-bought Korma paste (aka instant flavour) to make this meal simple and do-able any night of the week.

How to make the meatball curry

The lamb meatballs come together quickly. The most time your going to spend is in the rolling of them.

So its a just a matter of making the meatball mixture, rolling, browning them quickly in a pan then adding the spice paste, cream, stock and some nutty almond meal. Return the meatballs to the sauce and allow them to simmer and finish cooking through. The yummiest meatball curry awaits you!

❄️ Storage

FRIDGE:
To store any leftovers or if making head of time allow to cool to room temperature then transfer to the fridge in an airtight container/s. Best used within 3 days.

FREEZE:
The meatball curry freezes well for longer storage. Allow to cool to room temperature then portion into freezer safe airtight containers or freezer proof zip-lock bags. Label, date and freeze for up to 3 months.

REHEATING:

Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating gently on the stove top or in the microwave on MEDIUM (50% power) until evenly heated through and piping hot.

Ingredients

  • 750g lamb mince
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • ⅓ cup coriander leaves and stems, finely chopped
  • 1 large red onion, finely diced
  • ⅓ cup korma curry paste (I used Patak's)
  • 300ml thickened cream (See Notes)
  • ½ cup chicken stock
  • ¼ cup almond meal

TO SERVE

  • Steamed basmati rice
  • Steamed green beans
  • Coriander leaves
  • Toasted flaked almonds
  • Naan bread or pappadums

Instructions

  • Place the mince, ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala and fresh coriander in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Use your hands to mix until well combined. Roll 1 tablespoons portions of the mixture into balls and place on a plate.
  • Heat a large wide frying pan (about 26cm base measurement) over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, for 5-6 mins or until browned all over. Transfer meatballs to a plate. Drain any excess oil from pan leaving around 1 tablespoon.
  • Add the remaining onion to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes or until softened and lightly golden. Add the korma curry paste and stir for 2 minutes or until aromatic. Add the cream and stock and bring to a simmer.
  • Return the meatballs to the pan and add the almond meal, stir gently to combine. Simmer over a low heat for 10 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through and sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Serve the meatballs and sauce with steamed basmati rice and green beans. Garnish with coriander leaves and toasted flaked almonds. Drizzle with a little extra cream if desired. Serve with naan bread or poppadoms on the side.

Notes

  • COOKS NOTES:
    Oven Temps: 
    Oven temperatures are for conventional, if using fan-forced (convection), reduce the temperature by 20˚C.
    Measurements: We use Australian tablespoons and cups: 1 teaspoon = 5 ml, 1 tablespoon = 20 ml & 1 cup =  250 ml.
    Herbs: All herbs are fresh (unless specified) and cups are lightly packed.
    Vegetables: All vegetables are medium size and peeled, unless specified.
    Eggs: We use large size and eggs are 55-60 g each, unless specified.
  • THICKENED CREAM
    You can also use coconut cream or coconut milk instead of the cream. If using this option, add a 400ml can of either one and omit the chicken stock. If sauce gets to thick, simply add a splash of water to thin it out slightly.

Asian Pork & Broccolini Bowls ✨RECIPE✨ These Asian Pork & Broccolini Bowls ✨RECIPE✨

These pork bowls are SOOOO quick and easy to make and everyone, including the kids will enjoy it!

Not a fan of pork? Simply swap the pork mince out for extra lean beef, chicken or turkey!  You could also swap the broccolini out for snow peas, more green beans, Asian greens, zucchini or regular broccoli. 🥦 Simply use what’s you have or what your family enjoys! It’s very versatile - leave the chilli 🌶️ out or add more depending on your heat tolerance. 😎

Have a Happy day 🌺🌈

RECIPE ⬇️

Asian Pork & Broccolini Bowls
 
INGREDIENTS: - Serves 4

1 tablespoon oil
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped 
1/2 long red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped (Optional)
500g Extra Lean pork mince (or your choice of mince)
2 bunches broccolini, cut into 3cm lengths
1 cup chopped green beans
2 spring onions, cut into 3cm lengths

STIR-FRY SAUCE:
1/4 cup oyster sauce
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon kecap manis
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons brown sugar or honey
2 teaspoons cornflour

TO SERVE:
Cooked rice of choice 
Finely shredded carrot
Spring onions, sliced, extra to garnish
Herb to garnish if desired (I used some Thai basil as that’s what I had)

1 Combine Stir-Fry Sauce ingredients in a jug or bowl until throughly combined. Set aside.
2 Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium high heat. Add the garlic and chilli (if using) and cook for 30 seconds. Crumble in the pork mince then cook, breaking up with a spoon for 5 minutes or until cooked through. 
3 Add the broccolini and green beans. Cook, stirring for 2 minutes or until just starting to soften. Add the prepared Stir-Fry Sauce and the spring onions and cook for a further 1-2 minutes or until vegetables are just soft (but still a little crunchy) and the sauce has thickened.
4 Serve with rice and garnish with shredded carrot, extra spring onions, sliced red chilli (if using) and a sprig of herbs. Enjoy 😊

HEALTHY ZUCCHINI FRITTERS Recipe! This was lunch HEALTHY ZUCCHINI FRITTERS Recipe! 

This was lunch yesterday! Couple of my zucchini fritters with a poached egg, green leafy salad and a side of cherry tomatoes, red onion and some @stickybalsamic pearls. 

You could of course do so many things with these fritters. Serve with bacon, avocado, toast, smoked salmon, in a sandwich or wrap…the list is endless. 

Recipe below. I made them in my Thermomix but I have given directions for using a food processor. You could even just mix in a bowl. Just make sure you squeeze as much liquid as possible from the zucchini. You want the mixture to be quite firm so that you can almost shape them in the palm of your hand 🖐️ 

HEALHTY ZUCCHINI FRITTERS

Makes 8 

600g zucchinis
2 teaspoons salt, divided
100g grated mozzarella
50g grated light cheese
2 spring/green onions, roughly chopped
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves
1/2 cup basil leaves
1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1 1/2 teaspoon garlic granules
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 egg
75g (1/2 cup) wholemeal self-raising flour
125g can corn kernels, drained

1 Grate the zucchini into a bowl. Add the 1 teaspoon of the salt and mix to combine. Transfer onto a clean tea towel, chux or cheesecloth and wring out to remove as much liquid as possible. (Squeeze this really well then squeeze again)

2 Place cheese, spring/green onions, parsley, basil, oregano, garlic granules, cumin, pepper and remaining salt into a food processor. Mix until throughly combined. 

3 Add the zucchini, egg and flour. Process until combined. Add the corn and fold through. The mixture should be quite firm . If it’s too wet, add some more flour. (you almost want to be able to shape them with your hands kinda firm).

4 Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add 4 heaped spoonful of the mixture and flatten with the back of a spatula. Cook for 4-5 minutes each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining mixture and a little more oil. Cool on a wire rack  and serve as desired.

Spiced Salmon with Couscous, Vegetables and Balsam Spiced Salmon with Couscous, Vegetables and Balsamic Pearls. 

This was such a healthy and delicious dinner!

I pretty much had a fridge raid on my vegetable drawer! I roasted some cauliflower, zucchini, red onion and capsicum and also did some steamed greens 🥦 

For the salmon , I made a dry rub with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chilli flakes, brown sugar, dried oregano and S & P.  I lightly oiled the fish then sprinkled the rub over to coat. Baked in a 180C air fryer for 6 minutes! 

I served all this with @ainsleyfoodscompany Moroccan medley couscous, a light sprinkle of crumbled feta and topped it off with the lovely  @stickybalsamic balsamic pearls for a burst of flavour in every bite!! (See Link in bio)

It was a cracker of a dish my friends 💚🍣

Have. fabulous Friday 🥂 😁
