Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Chicken meatballs were tasty, but as others have commented, the curry sauce was very thin. I admittedly don’t stock low-sodium broth or soy sauce and did find the sauce a touch too salty. I think I’d try leaving out the broth and adding less soy sauce next time. I did add quite a bit of baby spinach and served it with a quinoa/rice mix.

    I had to use several more shakes of panko to make the meatballs even kind of workable. Still scooped directly into the pan. More of a meat disk than a ball. Very solid flavor profile. Excellent over rice noodles.

    Chicken meatballs were kind of wet to form, hard to keep uniform, they were a little bland, but kids really lined them. Double the recipe to take for a meal train, the curry was very delicious, beef up with chickpeas and served over rice. ?

    This was delicious and an easy to pull together weeknight dinner! Like other recipes in her cookbook though - I find them more one note than her substack recipes. I'll keep working my way through but if you're not a subscriber to her substack - I'd turn there first! Sprouted Kitchen also has a red curry meatball like this I will try next time to decide on best ingredients and flavors. Also, the curry is very runny and kind of a waste of ingredients in my opinion as it was like spooning water over rice. It should be thicker. I might forego the chicken broth and maybe add a teaspoon of chicken bouillon to the coconut milk to up those flavors?
