Grilled Meatballs with Indian-Spiced Yoghurt Sauce

This vibrant diabetes-friendly dish offers a sophisticated twist on the classic meatball, swapping heavy tomato sauces for a light, aromatic yoghurt dressing. The beef meatballs are seasoned with soy, ginger, and garlic, providing a deep savoury base that pairs beautifully with the earthy notes of cumin and turmeric. By grilling the meat instead of frying, you achieve a delicious charred exterior while keeping the recipe heart-healthy and relatively low in fat.

Perfect as a light supper or a protein-rich snack, these grilled meatballs are as nutritious as they are flavourful. The homemade spiced yoghurt sauce uses strained yoghurt for a thick, creamy consistency that mimics soured cream without the added calories. Serve these with a crisp green salad or roasted cauliflower for a complete, balanced meal that the whole family will enjoy.

Ingredients for Grilled Meatballs with Indian-Spiced Yoghurt Sauce

  • 900g beef mince round

  • 1 large red onion, minced

  • 2 large cloves garlic

  • 45ml light soy sauce

  • 2 large eggs, beaten

  • 1 cucharadita de jengibre picado

  • 1 cucharadita de sal

  • 1/2 cucharaditas de pimienta recién molida

  • 20ml extra virgin olive oil

  • 575ml yoghurt

  • 2 medium cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 cucharada de jugo de limón fresco

  • 2 cucharadas de aceite de oliva virgen extra

  • 2 cucharaditas de comino molido

  • 2 cucharaditas de cúrcuma molida

  • 1/4 de cucharadita de cayena

  • Sal y pimienta recién molida

  • 2 tablespoons minced curly parsley

  1. Combine the beef mince, onion, garlic, soy sauce, eggs, ginger, salt, and pepper in the bowl. Mix the ingredients with your hands until they are well blended and hold together well.

  2. Precalienta la parrilla.

  3. Brush the baking sheet with 2 teaspoons of the oil. With your hands, form the meat mixture into 24 round balls and place them 1 1/2 inches apart on the baking sheet. (Each ball should weigh about 15g .) Lightly moisten your hands before forming each ball to facilitate rolling. Brush the meatballs with the remaining oil and grill them, 4 inches from the heating element, 6 to 8 minutes, turning them once, until they are cooked through.

Place the meatballs in a shallow bowl with the Indian-Spiced Yoghurt Sauce on the side, or cut off the top of a small round loaf of bread, remove the insides, and spoon the meatballs into the bread. Dust with chopped parsley for colour.

  1. Line the strainer with the cheesecloth. Place it over a bowl and spoon the yoghurt into the strainer. Allow the yoghurt to drain in the refrigerator for 3 hours.

  2. Transfer the drained yoghurt from the cheesecloth to the other bowl and blend in the garlic, lemon juice, oil, cumin, turmeric, and cayenne. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
