Coconut Rice Balls with Goji Berries
Healthy, because

Nutritional values
The sweet-tart goji berries are rich in vitamin C and can have a mood-lifting and antioxidant effect, and can help with cellulite reduction. The fiber contained in rice stimulates digestion and provides long-lasting satiety.
Outside the grilling season, you can also finish the balls in the pan, accompanied by a homemade curry ketchup.
