MEATBALL CURRY WITH POTATOES

Steps:

• Get a large pan. Heat oil. Add cumin seeds. Let them sizzle for a few seconds.
• Add sliced onion. Spread evenly and cook until they turn brown on the edges. Do not let them burn. Make sure you stir them and flip them to ensure that all the onions cook evenly on each side.
• When the onions are brown, lower the heat and add ginger garlic paste. If you use store-bought, be careful, it would start to splatter. If this happens you can cover the pan with a lid. If you use freshly made ginger and garlic paste ( 1: 1 in weight) then you don't have to cover the pan. Let it cook for about 15 seconds.
• Then add your ground spices (coriander powder cumin powder, red chili powder, Kashmiri chili powder, turmeric powder) and about 1 tsp salt. This curry is quite hot so if you don't like it to be hot then reduce the amount of chili powder you use. Saute for about 10 seconds until you get the aroma of the spices.
• Now add diced tomatoes. Mix well with the spices. Cover with a lid. Cook on medium-low heat until they become completely mushy. Stir from time to time to prevent the bottom from sticking and to ensure even cooking.
• When the tomatoes are nice and mushy and the mixture looks quite thick, then add your yogurt. Keep the heat in the low setting as the high heat can curdle the yogurt. Mix well with the rest of the ingredients. The mixture would turn orange in color.
• Now add your meatballs (no need to thaw as long as they're separated) and potatoes. Mix well.
• Add water about 2 ½ cups. You can add more later if you want a lighter curry. Also, add a few green chilies broken. Stir to combine. Cover with a lid and cook on medium-low heat until potatoes become tender.
• Halfway through taste the curry and add salt if it needs any more salt. Add more water only if the curry seems dry. Check for the doneness of the potatoes as well.
• When the potatoes are well cooked and fork-tender, turn off the heat. If you feel like you have more liquid than you need in the curry, turn up the heat and cook uncovered for a few minutes. Finally, add chopped cilantro on the top.

YELLOW CURRY WITH MEATBALLS

Steps:

• For the chicken meatballs: Add the salt to the ground chicken.
• To a food processor, add the coconut milk, curry paste, ginger, brown sugar, garlic, habanero, egg and brioche. Process until smooth.
• Mix the bread-egg mixture into the ground chicken until combined and then form into large meatballs. Add the meatballs and vegetable oil to a pressure cooker over medium-high heat. Turn the meatballs over and place the top on the pressure cooker. Cook under pressure for 5 minutes.
• For the yellow curry sauce: In a large saute pan over high heat, simmer the coconut milk with the peppers, curry paste, brown sugar, ginger, garlic and 1 cup hot water until thickened and the peppers are tender. When the desired consistency is reached, add the basil and cilantro but do not stir through.
• For the pickled corn: Cut the kernels off the corn cobs and combine them in a bowl with the calamansi vinegar, brown sugar and 1/2 cup hot water. Allow to marinate for 20 minutes.
• For the crunchy spaghetti squash: Drop the spaghetti squash cubes into a pot of boiling water and bring to a simmer. Cook for 3 minutes, until the squash is just barely soft. Drain and shock with cold water to slow down carryover cooking. Drain again.
• Scrape the squash flesh from the peel using your fingers; it should feel crunchy. Salt the flesh and let sit for 2 minutes before squeezing out the water (so the squash is even more crunchy).
• For the toasted coconut: Fry some flaked coconut in a skillet with oil until golden brown, about 90 seconds. Drain on paper towels.
• To plate: Spoon spaghetti squash in the center of a shallow entrée-size bowl. Top with a meatball, then ladle curry sauce over the meatball and scatter pickled corn and fried coconut over the plate.

(Don't mix any more than this or you'll end up with tough meatballs!) Make 16 balls like this: divide the mixture in half, and then in half again. Take each quarter and divide it into 4 small portions. Roll each portion between your palms until smooth. Set aside and repeat for all 16 meatballs
• For the curry: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm the coconut oil until nearly smoking. Add the mustard seeds, covering the pan with a lid so you don't get popping seeds all over you.
• When the spluttering subsides, add the shallots, garlic and ginger and cook until golden brown. Then add the ground coriander, cumin and cayenne pepper. Stir, and cook 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and cook until they soften, about 5 minutes.
• Add the coconut milk, 1/2 cup of water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and bring to boil. Turn down to a simmer and add the meatballs. Simmer until the meatballs are cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
• To finish, add the cilantro and lime juice. Shake the pan gently to mix them in, and then taste for seasoning. Serve over rice, with Indian bread (naan or chapati) or over spaghetti!
