6 servings

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 3 green cardamom pods
  • 2 whole cloves
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 0.5 onion, grated
  • 1 (2 inch) piece ginger root, peeled and grated
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon garam masala
  • 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 0.25 cup whole milk yogurt
  • 24 frozen meatless vegetable meatballs (such as IKEA®'s frozen vegetable balls)

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds, cardamom pods, whole cloves, cinnamon stick, and bay leaf. Cook until spices start to sputter, about 1 minute. Stir in onion, ginger, and garlic. Cook and stir until onion is softened and just starting to brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in diced tomatoes, coriander, turmeric, cumin, garam masala, cayenne, and salt. Bring mixture to a gentle simmer; add yogurt and stir well. Add frozen vegetable balls. Pour in hot water to thin sauce slightly to desired consistency. Bring mixture back to a simmer and cook, covered, until sauce is thickened and vegetable balls are heated through, 10 to 15 minutes.
