Ingredients

8 oz organic, grass-fed ground beef or lamb
1 tbsp freshly ground coriander seeds
1 tsp ground ginger
1 handful cilantro leaves
2 tbsp Bulletproof Grass-Fed Ghee (or coconut oil, divided)
2 medium sweet potatoes
2 tbsp coconut aminos
4 radishes (trimmed and thinly sliced)
1 green onion (sliced, green portion only)
1 lemon or lime (sliced into wedges)

Instructions

In a wide glass mixing bowl, add pork, ground coriander, ginger, and half of the cilantro leaves. Mix well and form into 1 to 1.5-inch meatballs.
Heat a wide saucepan on medium heat. Add half of the Ghee or coconut oil.
Add meatballs to the pan, allowing space in between them. Cook until lightly golden on one side, then gently flip and repeat cooking. Continue until all sides have been browned.
With meatballs still in the pan, add remaining coconut oil and spiralized sweet potato to the pan.
Sauté sweet potato noodles alongside the meatballs for 8 minutes, or until softened and pork is cooked through.
Remove noodles from the pan and plate.
Add coconut aminos to the pan. Toss the pan to coat the meatballs.
Plate meatballs on top of sweet potato noodles and garnish with radish, green onion, and remaining cilantro. Spoon any remaining pan juices over the top.
Season to taste with salt and serve with a wedge of fresh lemon or lime.
