Directions

Mix well and shape into 12 equal meat balls. Brown on all sides with tiny bit of olive oil. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on hi for 2 minutes. Set aside. Add 1 teaspoon or more of Vindaloo paste and saute for a minute or two. Add 8 ounces of chicken stock. Heat and add 2 Tablespoons of corn starch mixed with cold water to make a slurry. Add just enough of the cornstarch slurry to make the sauce silky on the tongue. Put meat balls in sauce. Cover and simmer for a few minutes to plump the meatballs. Serve with rice. We like Basmati with Mango Chutney on the side. This can be made 2 days ahead and microwaved to reheat Per serving: 37 Calories; 1g Fat (23% calories from fat); 3g Protein; 4g Carbohydrate; 0mg Cholesterol; 1582mg Sodium Recipe By: Terry Pogue
