Recipe Summary Thai Green Curry Meatballs
Make a statement for dinner with the bold flavors of these Thai-inspired pork meatballs. I love Thai ingredients and decided to combine them together with pork to make these juicy meatballs that taste like they've been simmering for hours. Serve over rice or noodles and garnish with minced scallions. Increase the red pepper flakes for an extra kick!Ingredients | Nara Thai Cuisine 泰式料理 菜单1 pound ground pork½ cup rolled oats1 small carrot, cut into 1-inch chunks2 tablespoons water2 teaspoons fish sauce3 cloves garlic, minced2 teaspoons lemongrass paste1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root½ teaspoon salt½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (Optional)1 egg, lightly beaten1 tablespoon coconut oil1 (14 ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk2 tablespoons green curry paste1 tablespoon brown sugar1 teaspoon fish saucesalt to taste1 tablespoon lime juice¼ cup cilantro, mincedDirectionsPlace pork in a medium bowl.Place oats in a mini food processor or blender and pulse until coarsely ground, 5 to 10 seconds.
