Method
- Put the beef, onion, ginger, garlic, spices and fresh coriander in a large bowl and mix together well. With clean, wet hands, form the mixture into about 30 balls and chill for 30 minutes while you prepare the sauce.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the onions for 8 minutes, until soft and golden. Add the curry paste and fry for a minute, then stir in the tomatoes and stock. Simmer for 15 minutes, until it begins to thicken.
- Sit the meatballs on the sauce and simmer for 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked. Scatter with extra coriander and serve with naans.
