  3. Grind the coconut into paste and then add the pearl onions and grind again
  4. Mix the meat, powder, and paste with ½ tsp red chili powder, ½ tsp coriander powder, 2 pinches turmeric powder, salt, curry leaves. Mix well and make into 2 inch diameter balls

Note 2: Don’t add water when making the paste or else the meatballs will break up when frying
