Instructions
For the Kebabs
- In a large bowl, blend chicken mince, onion, coriander, ginger and garlic, salt, spices and breadcrumbs. Toss with a fork until just mixed in.
- Using a small scoop or a heaped tablespoon, scoop out meatballs onto a baking sheet lined with foil and greased with a bit of oil or cooking spray. (Depending on the size of your meatballs, you'll end up with about 20 meatballs).
- Refrigerate for at least 30 mins before baking.
- Bake at 180°C for 12-15 minutes, or until they're cooked through and lightly browned.
For the Curry
- In a large sauté pan heat the oil over medium heat, and cook onion until lightly browned.
- Add garlic paste, green chilli and curry leaves and stir through.
- Add liquidised tomatoes and the rest of the spices and cook for about 5 to 10 mins over medium heat.
- Stir through the coconut milk and cook rapidly over medium high heat until the sauce thickens.
- Add water as needed if you feel the need to thin out the sauce.
- Add the cooked kebabs to the sauce and stir to coat well.
- Garnish with fresh coriander leaves
- Serve with lime wedges and rice or roti
Notes
*If you can't find chicken mince, you can make your own! Just put boneless, skinless chicken breasts into your food processor and process until finely ground.
