RECIPE: Turkey Mini Meatballs
Ingredients:
600g ground turkey breast
1 tbsp garlic
1 tbsp curry powder
Method:
> put the turkey into the freezer bag along with the garlic and curry
> seal it up and squeeze out all the air; now squish it around to blend the curry and garlic into the meat
> cut a hole, approximately 8mm or 1/4 inch in one bottom corner of the bag
> squeeze the meat into a hot, oiled skillet (I prefer cast iron)
> "cut" off the meatball once it reaches the preferred size with a butter knife, or make longer pieces for a sausage shaped "meatball"
> pour in a little water to help the turkey balls to pop off the pan when you're ready to move them onto the salad
For the salads... one is just sliced fresh veggies with meatballs on top, sort of like a plate of appetizers. It was an interesting experiment for me, because the meatballs tasted different with each vegetable; grilled zucchini, napa cabbage (suey choy), mushrooms, and tomatoes.
The other salad is a diced mango, basil, tomato, mixed organic baby greens, and celery. Both were AMAZING and I have made these meatballs several times since, with much success.
What are a few spice combinations that might work in these? Any ideas?
