To be honest I quite like the cripsy bits round the outside of the fried 
meatballs and they were perfectly juicy straight out of the pan but I 
shall give that a go.

I had pondered adding cinammon or nutmeg since I now add those regularly 
to both my bolognese and chilli but figured I'd go for a sharper taste.

I have, and I'm quite proud to say this, never been to any Ikea anywhere 
in the world. And I really think I'm going to be able to make it through 
life without havign to change that fact.

On the other hand - your curried meatballs intrigue me. What sort of 
sauce do they have? Is it creamy or tomatoey? Hot or mild? 

Dammit! Answers man! I demand to know about your
Scandawegian/Subcontinent fusion cookery experiements!
