Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.

  • Don't Overmix the Meatball Mixture: Overmixing can make the meatballs tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Shape the Meatballs Evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Use a cookie scoop or a tablespoon to measure out the meatball mixture, and then roll each meatball between your palms to form a smooth, round ball.

  • Use a Good-Quality Asian Glaze: The glaze is what gives these meatballs their delicious flavor. Look for a glaze that is made with high-quality ingredients and that has a good balance of sweet, sour, and savory flavors.
  • Serve the Meatballs Hot: These meatballs are best served hot, right out of the oven. They can be served over rice, noodles, or vegetables, or they can be eaten as an appetizer.
