Red curry paste gives a warming, tasty tinge to creamy coconut milk. Beefy meatballs soak up this lipsmacking liquid, elevated with pan-fried patty pans, earthy spinach & lemon juice. Served on a steaming bed of jasmine rice and garnished with herbaceous coriander. Best served with a generous glass of the recommended Groote Post wine.

  1. NICE RICE

    Place the rice in a pot with 200ml [400ml]|#7DA0D7 of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.

  2. FLAVOURBOMBS

    Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs until browned but not cooked through, 2-3 minutes, shifting as they colour. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. CURRY-COCO SAUCE

    Return the pot to medium heat with a drizzle of oil, if necessary. Fry the patty pans and the curry paste until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Mix in the coconut milk, 50ml [100ml]|#7DA0D7 of water, and the meatballs. Simmer until the meatballs are cooked through, 5-6 minutes. In the final 1-2 minutes, mix in the Spinach. Remove from the heat, add a sweetener (to taste), the lemon juice (to taste), and season.

  4. BOWL UP!

    Serve up a generous helping of rice, topped with the Thai curry and meatballs. Scatter over the coriander. Enjoy, Chef!
