Vegan Lentil Meatballs with Indian Coconut Curry Sauce

Double the sauce recipe for sure

So I tried to make the recipe the way it's written but I had to make a few changes to the sauce. The lentil meatballs are good but a little bland. Next time I plan to add breadcrumbs, garam masala, extra salt and maybe extra cilantro. The sauce definitely needed some help. I added about 1 tbsp of red curry paste. Definitely helped to improve the flavor. I may try experimenting with other curry powders in the future. Overall not a bad recipe just needs a little help but I'm willing to make it again.

This is so so good.

Awesome! Used lentils instead of caviar beans. Notes to make this an authentic Indian recipe: Add minced onions and fresh garlic to meatballs and double cilantro quantity. Start the sauce with onions and use a tablespoon of vinegar instead of the lime at the end. I'll post another review when I try with these modifications.

This has become a go-to dinner for us. My daughter loves the lentil "meat" balls and truly, the sauce for this recipe is super easy to make and can go with anything - chicken, tofu, fish - a stand alone soup. I suggest doubling the recipe for the sauce! The lentil meat balls are a little labor intensive - but nothing difficult and we think taste great. Would absolutely recommend - especially the sauce!
