In small bowl combine and stir together spices. Set aside.
Heat large skillet over high heat until hot. Add fat, onions (or cauliflower) and 1 teaspoon sea salt. Lower heat to medium and sauté 8 minutes.
While onions/cauliflower cook, set out a large plate or broad bowl to make the meatballs. Measure 1 tablespoon from the mixed together spices onto plate. Add remaining 1 teaspoon sea salt, and stir together. Add beef. Mix it together with the spices and salt, and form 15-16 1" meatballs.
Add remaining spices from the small bowl to the sauté pan. Stir into the onions until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Lower heat. Add tomato paste and stir around a bit. Add meatballs, spaced around the pan. Add the coconut milk, spinach only if you're using frozen, ginger and garlic. Cover and simmer over medium low heat for 10 minutes.
Remove lid, stir, add spinach if you're using the fresh option. Cook another 1 minute to wilt the spinach.
Serve with cauliflower rice or basmati white rice (for gluten-free). Garnish, optionally, with freshly minced cilantro.
Notes
To make your own Garam Masala Spice Blend (ahead of time), instead of buying a ready-made blend, here's a recipe.
If you tolerate ghee, I'm profoundly excited to share with you THIS Yak Ghee!! I love when I find a dairy product that is easily accessible, A2 and pasture-raised. Alternately, I suggest making your own ghee from Kerrygold butter. Most butters available are not from A2 cows.
The nutritional information below is for the Keto/Low Carb version of this recipe, made with cauliflower in place of the onions.
