Meatball Ingredients
2 lbs ground pork or 2 lbs ground beef
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 cup panko breadcrumbs or 1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 eggs
3 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 cup thinly-sliced green onion
optional garnish
toasted sesame seeds, sliced scallions (optional)
Asian Sauce Ingredients
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

1
Preheat oven to 400.
2
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 9x13 baking dish. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until meatballs are golden on the outside and no longer pink on the inside.
3
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.
4
Serve warm, and sprinkle with additional garnish if desired.
