Ginger Turkey Meatballs with Coconut Broth and Noodles

This aromatic ginger turkey meatballs with coconut broth and noodles is a vibrant, high-protein dish that brings a touch of Southeast Asian flair to your kitchen. The lean turkey mince is infused with ginger, garlic, and soy, then roasted until golden and served in a silky, fragrant broth. Fresh sugar snap peas and peppers add a satisfying crunch, making this a balanced and colourful bowl that is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate.

Perfect for a nutritious midweek dinner, this recipe is easily adaptable depending on your spice preference; simply add the red curry paste for a warming heat or keep it mild for a family-friendly alternative. It is an excellent choice for meal prep, as both the meatballs and the savoury coconut broth can be prepared in advance and stored in the fridge for up to three days. Serve with plenty of fresh lime and herbs for a bright finish.

How to make Ginger Turkey Meatballs with Coconut Broth and Noodles

Preheat oven to 218°C. Line a rimmed baking sheet or 13x9" glass or metal baking dish with parchment.

Beat egg in a large bowl with a fork. Add turkey, panko, spring onion, garlic, soy sauce, ginger, and 1/2 teaspoons salt and stir well to combine. Using your hands, roll mixture into 1" balls, packing firmly (you should have about 30). Transfer to prepared baking sheet.

Roast meatballs, turning once halfway through, until firm and cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted into centre of meatball registers 74°C, 15–20 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook snap peas and pepper in a medium pot of boiling well-salted water 2 minutes. Transfer to a colander with a spider, slotted spoon, or tongs, reserving water in pot. Transfer to a medium bowl. Return water to a boil and cook noodles according to package directions. Drain noodles, then transfer to a large bowl and toss with oil.

To make plain noodles with no broth, divide noodles among bowls and top with meatballs, snap peas, and pepper, or separate into different sections on a plate.

Heat oil in a medium pot over medium. Add garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 30–60 seconds. Add coconut milk, broth, lime juice, soy sauce, and salt. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes, then remove from heat.

Divide noodles among bowls. Ladle broth over and top with meatballs, snap peas, and pepper.

Whisk curry paste into coconut broth mixture (or keep half of broth “plain” to make 2 mild bowls, and whisk 2 tablespoons curry paste into remaining half to make 2 spicy bowls).

Divide noodles among bowls. Ladle broth over and top with meatballs, snap peas, and peppers. Garnish with lime wedges, basil, spring onions, chillies, peanuts, if using.

Meatballs and broth can be made 3 days ahead. Store separately and chill.
