Keto Curried Meatball Soup
How to Make It
Step 1
Add the ground pork to a mixing bowl. Finely chop the onion and cilantro and crush the garlic. Add to the bowl with the ground pork. Season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 2
Mix everything together thoroughly with your hands and divide into eight even portions. Roll each portion into a ball. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over a medium/high heat. Add the pork meatballs and cook until well browned all over.
Step 3
Add the coconut milk, chicken stock and curry powder to the saucepan. Stir well and bring up to a gentle boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes or until the meatballs are entirely cooked through and no pink remains. If you wish, you may use an alternative stock or broth, and you may adjust the quantity of spices to taste.
Step 4
While the soup is simmering, cut the ends from the zucchini and peel the outer skin and discard. Peel the zucchini flesh into wide ribbons. These will act as your low carb noodles. Add the zucchini noodles to the saucepan. Stir well to combine and cook for a minute more or until the zucchini is just tender. You do not want to overcook the zucchini or it will be too mushy. Divide the soup between two individual serving bowls and serve hot.
