Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 cups water
⅛ teaspoon salt
¾ cup parboiled long-grain white rice (such as Uncle Ben's®)
½ cup carrots, diced
2 tablespoons tamari
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 pound ground pork
½ cup frozen peas
½ cup diced green onion
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
1 cup pineapple juice
⅔ cup white sugar
⅓ cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Combine water and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add rice and carrots. Cook until rice is tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and rinse; set aside to cool. Drizzle tamari and rice vinegar over cooled rice and stir.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine cooked rice mixture, ground pork, peas, green onion, egg, ginger, garlic powder, salt, and white pepper in a large bowl. Mix by hand until just combined; do not overmix. Shape mixture into 25 to 30 golfball-sized meatballs and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until browned on the outside and no longer pink inside, about 22 minutes.
  • While meatballs are cooking, combine cornstarch and water in a bowl and whisk well.
  • Combine pineapple juice, sugar, white vinegar, and rice vinegar in a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Add 1 tablespoon of the mixture to the cornstarch mixture and stir well. Pour cornstarch mixture into the saucepan, whisking constantly. Reduce heat to medium and whisk until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and pour sauce into a deep serving dish.
  • Arrange baked meatballs on a serving plate. Sprinkle with parsley and serve hot with sauce on the side or drizzled over meatballs.
