PORK BALLS IN CURRY SAUCE

Serves 8

Ingredients

· 1½ pounds lean ground pork
· 3/4 cup soft bread crumbs
· 1 egg, lightly beaten
· 3/4 cup finely chopped onion
· 1 teaspoon salt
· 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
· 1-2 tablespoons crushed dried red peppers
· 1 tablespoon curry powder
· 1 teaspoon ground ginger
· 3 cups chopped onion
· 2 cloves garlic, minced
· 2/3 cup cider vinegar
· 1 cup tomato sauce
· 1 cup chicken broth
· 3/4 cup sour cream
 

Cooking Directions

Combine ground pork, bread crumbs, egg, onion and salt. Shape into 1½-inch balls (about 30). Heat oil in a fry pan. Add half pork balls and cook, shaking pan to brown all sides. Remove browned balls from pan and repeat with remainder. Remove browned balls from pan; pour off fat, measure and return 2 tablespoons to pan. Add red peppers, curry powder and ginger; cook and stir about 1 minute. Add onions, garlic, vinegar, tomato sauce and chicken broth; stir to blend and bring to a boil. Add pork balls; cover; reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes. Push balls to one side and stir in sour cream; carefully mix sauce and balls. Serve with noodles or rice, if desired.
 

Serving Suggestions
