Provided by Alyssa Rivers

Categories     Appetizer     Dinner     Main Course

Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds ground pork or ground beef
2 teaspoon sesame oil
1 cup Panko or breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 large eggs
3 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 Cup thinly-sliced green onions
Optional garnish: toasted sesame seeds, sliced scallions
2/3 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • In a large bowl, mix together meatball ingredients until well-combined. Shape into balls (I made mine about 1.5 inches, which yielded about 35 meatballs, but 1 inch is probably standard), and place on a greased baking sheet or in a 9×13 baking dish.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until meatballs are golden on the outside and no longer pink on the inside.
  • While the meatballs are baking, whisk together all of the sauce ingredients until blended. Once meatballs have finished cooking, you can either dip each meatball individually (using a toothpick) in the sauce mixture. Or you can pour the sauce over the meatballs and gently stir them until covered.
  • Serve warm, and sprinkle with additional garnish if desired.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before starting, measure and prepare all ingredients. This will ensure smooth and efficient cooking.
  • Fresh Ingredients: Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
  • Proper Meatball Formation: Mix the meatball ingredients gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can result in tough meatballs. Roll them into uniform sizes for even cooking.
  • Pan-Frying: Heat the pan over medium-high heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the meatballs in the pan, ensuring they have enough space to brown evenly. Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this will prevent proper browning.
  • Sauce Perfection: Bring the sauce ingredients to a simmer in a separate pan, stirring occasionally. Once the meatballs are browned, add them to the sauce and let them simmer for the specified time, allowing the flavors to meld.
  • Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish the meatballs with chopped green onions, sesame seeds, or cilantro for an extra layer of flavor and visual appeal. Serve with steamed rice, noodles, or vegetables for a complete meal.
