I thought this was great. We love spice, so I took others' advice and doubled the curry and the garam masala. I left out the sugar and added a chopped jalapeno with the onion. It was definitely hot, but delicious!

These are yummy~~My DH liked them very much. I doubled the curry powder and the garam masala. I put in 1 1/4 tsp. sugar, and I think next time I will leave it out. Thanks for sharing!! :O)

I am so glad that I picked this recipe to make for the RSC contest because it is a real winner! I made this dish exactly as instructed and got perfect results and a wonderful meal for two with one serving left over. I actually made this recipe the day before and reheated it with outstanding results! The meat balls are so very tender and the sauce filled with flavor. However, it was very spicy (fine for us) and some people might want to cut down on the cayenne pepper just a bit. I know I will make this again, not only for my family, but as a great dish to serve to company. Congratulations on creating an excellent recipe.

The reviews were so positive for this recipe that I boldly decided to quadruple it before I even made it. I'm glad I did because the flavor is glorious! I decreased the amount of sugar by half because, like Lizzie-Babette, I didn't want a very sweet sauce. Other than that I didn't change a thing. I thought the spices were perfect - smoothe and comforting with just a little bite! I served the meatballs over brown rice with a cucumber raita on the side. My husband and I enjoyed it very much and I look forward to serving it to my in-laws. Thanks for a delightful recipe!
