Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp sunflower or neutral oil, for brushing
  • 500g 12% fat pork mince
  • 190g jar Cook's Ingredients Thai Green Paste
  • 100g soft white breadcrumbs
  • 3 tbsp finely chopped coriander leaves, plus extra to serve
  • 3 unwaxed limes, cut into 10 slices
  • 3 yellow flesh peaches, cut into 6 wedges
  • 1 red or green chilli, finely chopped

Method

  1. Prepare the barbecue for cooking with the coals banked to one side. Once lit, use a piece of oiled kitchen paper and tongs to oil the grill bars and prevent food from sticking.

  2. In a bowl, mix the pork, curry paste, breadcrumbs and chopped coriander with a pinch of salt and mix well with your hands for a few minutes (this helps it stick to the skewer). Divide into around 20 golf ball sized meatballs (around 40g each) and flatten them out slightly. Chill them for 30 minutes if you have time.

  3. Thread a slice of lime onto 5 metal skewers, then alternate meatballs and peach segments, finishing with another slice of lime. Place on the barbecue directly over the coals and grill for a few minutes each side or until lightly charred, cooked through and no pink meat remains. Serve scattered with extra chopped coriander and the fresh chilli.
