Expert Tips

Curry powder is a British invention meant to replicate the seasonings ground fresh daily by cooks in southern India. Madras curry powder is extra-hot.

Prepare the meatballs and refrigerate up to two days in advance. To freeze, prepare the recipe and place in freezer container; freeze for up to one month. To serve, thaw meatballs and heat as directed.

Use a slow cooker to serve meatballs during a party. Hot meatballs can be held for two hours in a slower cooker set on low with the lid removed. Provide small forks, pretzel sticks or cocktail toothpicks for easy eating.

I made this for a Hawaiian party once everyone raved. Usually when I make these meatballs, there are none left. I have also used little pork riblets instead of meatballs.

My family loves these and I make them every Christmas. I have a hard time finding Pineapple Preserves so I use Apricot-Pineapple and they come out great.
