Peanut and Ginger Pork Meatballs

"This is a low glycemic index recipe, as far as I can tell, as that is how I eat. I think it should be suitable for diabetics, please someone let me know if it isn't. I didn't want to fry the meatballs as I wasn't feeling well, so I did something new for me and simmered them instead. They came out with a very nice texture, I hope it works for you as well. My so-particular husband took two helpings, which is a good sign."

directions

  • Mix pork mince, egg, kumera, soy sauce and rolled oats together in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in your largest, lidded, pot.
  • Fry onion, garlic, ginger, and chili for about one minute.
  • Add remaining ingredients except for the peanut butter and half of the salt so you can adjust later.
  • Simmer this sauce for about 5 minutes.
  • Use the pork mixture to make meatballs about the size of a small egg, and place them carefully on top of the simmering sauce. Use a spoon to make sure they all have some sauce poured over them.
  • Simmer with the lid on for about 30 minutes while checking and stirring very gently once or twice.
  • Add peanut butter by using some of the sauce to thin it down before pouring it into the pot.
  • Taste and add remaining salt if needed.
  • Serve with salad.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am interested in recipes that avoid potatoes, rice, wheat, sugar, cheese, and/or are low glycemic. I tried Montignac and it worked for me, now to increase my repertoire. My favourite dish is eggplant fritters :) My pet food peeve is the additives in frozen chicken pieces here. I love Thai food and once cooked only Thai for 6 months in preparation for a big event. I have very little sense of humour but my family keep trying :(
