Recipe Steps

When I prepared this Thai Turkey Meatballs in Coconut Curry recipe, I made a few adjustments based on our preferences and pantry items. Instead of gluten-free or grain-free cracker crumbs, I used regular bread crumbs. We enjoy garlic, so I added a couple of extra cloves and used fresh ginger. Since I didn’t have coconut aminos, I substituted soy sauce. Feel free to use more or less red curry paste in this recipe depending on your desired level of spiciness.

For the coconut curry, I followed the recipe as written but also included a couple of teaspoons of fish sauce. We love vegetables, so I added a green bell pepper in addition to the red bell pepper.

I served our Thai Turkey Meatballs over jasmine rice and included a side of garlic naan, even though I know naan is Indian. It was a delicious addition.
