with Slaw, Coconut Sauce & Peanuts

Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. Remove centre veins from makrut lime leaves, then very finely chop. Roughly chop baby spinach leaves.
TIP: The makrut lime leaves are fibrous so you want to cut them into very small pieces!
• SPICY! You may find the curry paste hot! Add less if you're sensitive to heat. In a medium bowl, combine pork mince, fine breadcrumbs, a pinch of salt, 1/2 the garlic and 1/2 the Thai red curry paste (see ingredients). • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of pork mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook meatballs, turning, until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
• While meatballs are cooking, combine slaw mix, baby spinach and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil in a large bowl. Season to taste.
• SPICY! You may find the curry paste hot! Add less if you're sensitive to heat. Wipe out frying pan and return to medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook makrut lime and remaining garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add remaining Thai green curry paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Stir in coconut milk, the soy sauce and brown sugar. Simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes.
• Divide slaw between bowls. Top with green curry pork meatballs and coconut sauce. • Sprinkle with crushed peanuts to serve. Enjoy!
