If you’re having friends over for drinks or to watch the big game, these tangy meatballs will disappear faster than cold beers on a hot day. You can serve them as finger foods, with toothpicks as the utensil. I also like to make them for dinner alongside an Asian slaw or white rice.

 

Ingredients

Units Scale

Meatballs

  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon Hoisin sauce
  • 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 egg
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled and minced
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

Glaze

  • 1/3 cup hoisin sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled and minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

Garnish (optional)

  • 1 green onion, sliced, green parts only
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F or 204°C. Prepare a baking sheet or dish with foil and cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground pork, sesame oil, breadcrumbs, ground ginger, eggs, 3 teaspoons minced garlic, Hoisin sauce, and 2 green onions, sliced. Mix together with your hands until well combined.
  3. Scoop 3 tablespoons of meat into balls that measure about 1.5 inches in diameter. You can make them bigger or smaller if you are willing to adjust the cooking time.  (you can make them bigger if you want). Place meatballs onto the prepared baking sheet. Place into the heated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until fully cooked (the internal temperature has reached 145°F or 63°C).
  4. While meatballs bake, whisk Hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, 1 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, and 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger in a medium bowl. Pour glaze into a saucepan and heat gently over low heat.
  5. When meatballs are cooked, add them and the glaze into a large bowl and toss gently. Serve warm and garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
