1 lb Ground beef (85-90% lean)

    1/2 c  All purpose flour

      1 c  Coconut milk

      2 tb Red curry paste

      2 tb Creamy peanut butter

      1 tb Fish sauce

      1 tb Sugar

      2 tb Oil

    1/4 c  Thai or sweet basil leaves

  Form ground beef into 1" in diameter balls and coat evenly with flour,
  shaking off any excess flour. In a medium saucepan, brown meatballs in oil
  over low heat. The meatballs do not have to be thoroughly cooked. Drain on
  paper towels and set aside. Add the curry paste to the remaining oil from
  frying the meatballs and saute for 1 minute over low heat. Increase heat to
  medium, add coconut milk and cook 2-3 minutes longer. Stir in fish sauce,
  sugar, peanut butter and blend well. Return the meatballs to the pan of
  curry mixture and cook until well done. Transfer the curry to a serving
  bowl and sprinkle basils. Serve with cooked rice.
