  • Shape the Meatballs Evenly: Use a small cookie scoop or your hands to shape the meatballs into even-sized balls. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Brown the Meatballs Thoroughly: Before adding the meatballs to the sauce, brown them in a pan over medium heat until they are golden brown on all sides. This will help seal in the juices and flavor.
  • Use a Good Quality Peanut Butter: The peanut butter is a key ingredient in this dish, so use a good quality, natural peanut butter. Avoid peanut butter with added sugar or oils.
  • Add Some Heat: If you like spicy food, add a teaspoon or two of chili powder or cayenne pepper to the sauce. You can also add some chopped jalapeños or serrano peppers.
  • Serve with Rice or Noodles: Meatballs in spicy peanut curry sauce can be served over rice or noodles. Jasmine rice, basmati rice, or soba noodles are all good options.
