Tips

Lemon zest

To Zest with a Citrus Zester: Place the fine, sharp-edged holes on one end of the citrus, following the curvature of the fruit. Push slightly into the fruit and pull down to the other end. Repeat this process until the entire lemon peel is removed and only the pith remains.

So I have learnt that coconut meatballs is actually a thing. Skip the tomatoes and add 2 TBSP of lemon juice with the lemon zest when making the stew.

These meatballs are tasty as appetizers, as the protein in a fresh Southeast Asian style roll or noodle salad, in a hot noodle soup, or atop a rice bowl with some fresh veg and/or pickles to accompany.I used ground pork, but you can use ground beef or chicken, or a combination, if you like.

During this pandemic, our stores are empty. There is hardly any meat. I've stocked up on things like frozen meat balls and SPAM. The turkey meatballs I have are not very good at all. This sauce covers the flavor up some.
