Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 lb. ground pork
  • 1 onion (diced)
  • ½ cup almond meal
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • ¼ tsp. allspice (ground)
  • ¼ tsp. nutmeg (ground)
  • 4 cups beef stock
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • ¼ cup ghee
  • 2 tbsp. tapioca starch
  • 1 tbsp. fresh parsley leaves (chopped)
  • Cooking fat
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instruction

  • Heat some cooking fat in a large skillet placed over medium heat.
  • Add the onion, and cook, stirring consistently, until the onions are soft, about 4-5 minutes.
  • In a bowl, combine the beef, pork, almond meal, egg yolks, allspice, nutmeg, and cooked onion.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste, and give everything a good stir.
  • Roll the meat into 1 ¼-inch meatball.
  • Add some more cooking fat to the skillet and brown the meatballs in batches on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch, and set aside.
  • Melt the ghee in the skillet placed over medium heat.
  • Gradually whisk in the beef stock and cook, constantly whisking, for about 2 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Remove a small amount of the sauce from the pan. Mix the tapioca starch into that small amount of sauce and slowly return it to the pan, whisking consistently until it thickens.
  • Stir in the meatballs and cook, occasionally stirring, until cooked through and thickened, about 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Serve immediately with parsley.
