* I Didn't add them all inside the yogurt in order not to crowd the pot, I saved a dinner plate full in the freezer covered for another time.
Refrigerate uncovered for a couple of hours or overnight.
To cook this dish you''re going to cook a cup of fresh chopped cilantro and a 1/4 cup smashed garlic in 2 tbsp butter for 1 minute.
In a big pot add 2 quarts of plain yogurt, 3/4 cup water, 2 tbsp corn starch, mix well then turn the heat and whisk consistently until it comes to a boil. Season with 2 tsp of salt, keep on whisking the whole time. When it starts to bubble start dropping the meat balls one after the other, don't over crowd the pot. I added the whole tray of dumpling slowly. Use a wooden spoon to gently stir and make sure nothing sticks to the bottom.
Cook the dumplings for 4 minutes, then add the cilantro garlic mixture saving some for garnish for later.
You can serve as is or with jasmine rice if you prefer. Wait for the dish to cool for an hour before serving and enjoy.
