In a seperate bowl, add the rest of the ingredients except oil, ginger and garlic paste and half of the chopped shallots and vinegar. Add the coconut milk to this and mix well. Keep a deep cooking pot on the stove and add the oil and remaining chopped shallot and saute until golden brown. Now add the garlic and ginger paste and stir until the aroma rises. Pour the coconut milk and spice mixture to this together with the curry leaves, pandan leaf (ramba), cloves, cinnamon and cardamom. When the gravy starts to boil, add the salt and vinegar and gently drop the meat balls into the gravy one by one. Do not stir because if you stir the meat balls will brake. If it looks like there is not enough room to add the meat balls, gently shake the pot and the meat balls will sink into the gravy. Serve with any type of rice i.e. fried rice, plain rice or buriyani rice. Enjoy. ! © Malini's Kitchen - Printed from www.infolanka.com/recipes
