==Ingredients==
;for the meatballs

:½ tsp salt
:1 tsp ground cumin
:1 tsp ground coriander
:½ tsp garam masala
:¼ tsp cayenne pepper
:2 Tbsp fine chopped fresh coriander
:3 Tbsp yoghurt (greek or similar)
;for the sauce
:5 cloves garlic
:3cm fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
:4 Tbsp + 250ml water
:½ tsp salt
:1 tsp ground cumin
:1 tsp ground coriander
:1 tsp paprika
:½ tsp cayenne pepper
:5 Tbsp vegetable oil
:2-3cm stick cinnamon
:6 whole cloves
:6 whole green cardamom pods
:100g onion finely chopped
:100g tomato finely chopped - or ½ tin
:4 Tbsp yoghurt

==Method==
#'''Meatballs.''' Combine all the ingredients for the meatballs and squeeze together till fully mixed. Form into 20-30 meatballs.
#'''Make the spice paste'''. Put the garlic and ginger in a food processor and whizz with 4 Tbsp water to form a paste. Put in a bowl and mix in the ground spices.
#'''Fry the onions'''. Heat the oil in a heavy pan over a medium high flame. When hot add the whole spices and fry for several seconds. Add the onions and fry, stirring frequently, until they are a reddish brown colour.
#'''Fry the spice mix'''. Turn down the heat a little and add the ginger, garlic, spice paste and the tomatoes. Fry till the sauce starts to catch. Then add a Tbsp of yoghurt and mix and incorporate. Repeat with the other Tbsps of yogurt. Then add ½tsp of salt and 250ml water and bring to a simmer
#'''Cook'''. Add the meatballs in a single layer and cook on a very low heat. Alternatively, place in a single layer in a shallow oven dish and cook in the oven at 160℃. Cook for 30-40 minutes stirring occasionally. If need be add a little water during cooking, but sauce should be quite thick at the end
