These were very popular
when I cooked them for dinner one night last week.
These Spicy Pork Meatballs are also great cooked on the
barbeque. But don't cook them too fast on the BBQ or the
inside won't cook thoroughly.
They are delicious served
with home made
Potato Wedges, beetroot and a mixed salad.

Food Facts:
Ground coriander is a spice made from the seed of the Cilantro
plant which is an annual herb. The seeds can be dry roasted and
ground. Coriander is one of the main ingredients in Indian curry
powder. Fresh coriander leaves can also be eaten but they have a
very different taste to the seeds. Both coriander seeds and leaves
were used in medieval times to disguise the taste and smell of
rotten food.
Cumin is a flowering plant that produces a
compact, tiny fruit that holds one seed. the ground seed is mainly
used in Indian and Mexican cuisine but also is used in the Middle
East, North Africa and parts of Asia. It has a slightly
bitter-sweet taste. Cumin aids digestive problems so it is good to
eat at the same time as beans. It is said to relieve diarrhoea,
nausea and morning sickness.
