Lightly brush a rimmed baking sheet with oil. Pur\u00e9e onion, jalapenos, ginger, lemon juice, garam masala, coriander, cumin and cayenne in a blender until smooth. Transfer mixture to a large bowl and add mince, egg, yogurt, and salt. Mix with your hands until mixture is homogenous and starts to become very sticky like sausage meat, about 1 minute. Roll meatball mixture into golf ball\u2013size portions and place on baking sheet, spacing 1&#8243; apart (you should have about 24). Drizzle meatballs with more oil and bake until browned on top and cooked through, 20\u201325 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Curry Sauce<\/strong><br \/>\nMeanwhile, heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add onions and ginger. Cook, stirring often, until onions are translucent and starting to brown, 8\u201310 minutes. Stir in dried spices (but not the salt). Cook, stirring often, until mixture is very fragrant and spices begin to stick to the pot, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, stirring and scraping bottom of pot, and bring to a boil. Add salt and 2 cups water; return to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until flavors have melded, 25\u201330 minutes. Let curry sauce cool slightly, then blend until very smooth using a hand blender. Stir in lemon juice. Taste sauce and season with more salt if needed.<\/p>\n<p>Gently nestle cooked meatballs into sauce, bring to a simmer, and cook until meatballs are heated all the way through, 10\u201315 minutes. Serve topped with chopped coriander.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INGREDIENTS Meatballs Olive oil 1 small white onion 2 jalapenos, seeds removed 1 1-inch piece ginger, peeled, chopped juice from half a medium lemon 1 tsp garam masala 1 tsp ground coriander 1\/2 tsp ground cumin 1\/2 tsp cayenne pepper 2 tsp kosher salt 2 pounds ground beef &#8211; substitute for lamb or pork, as&#8230;<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-wrap\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/2018\/07\/24\/recipe-curried-meatballs\/\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &ldquo;[recipe] Curried meatballs&rdquo;<\/span> &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[22],"class_list":["post-39804","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-recipes"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p3u9vK-am0","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39804","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39804"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39804\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":39806,"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39804\/revisions\/39806"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39804"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39804"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.flubu.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39804"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
