Preparación

1. 1

   --- Mix & Shape the Meatballs ---

2. 2

   Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking tray with parchment paper or foil and set aside.

3. 3

   Add 1 pound ground pork, 1 pound ground beef, 2 large eggs, 1 tablespoon garlic, ⅔ cup almond flour, 1 teaspoon dried dill, 1 teaspoon onion powder, ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper to a large bowl and gently mix together by hand or with a spatula.

4. 4

   Use your hands to form the meat mixture into meatballs, using about two tablespoons of the mixture per meatball. They'll be roughly the size of a golf ball. Place on a baking sheet.

5. 5

   Bake the meatballs at 400°F (200°C) for 12 minutes. Internal temperature should be at least 150°F (65.5°C).

6. 6

   --- Make the Sauce ---

7. 7

   While meatballs are cooking, prepare the sauce by adding ½ cup coconut milk and ½ cup beef broth to a sauce pan. Then add ½ teaspoon dried dill, ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper to the coconut milk. Let coconut milk simmer for 5 minutes.

8. 8

   In a small bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons cornstarch and 2 teaspoons water to make a cornstarch slurry. Then pour that into the coconut cream mixture to help it thicken. It's technically optional, so don't worry if you don't have corn starch.

9. 9

   Remove the meatballs from the oven and use tongs to carefully put them into the sauce. Feel free to pour any of meatball juices on the pan into the sauce as well! It adds a ton of flavor.

    Serve the meatballs over white rice with steamed green beans. Spoon additional gravy over meatballs and rice.
