Servings: persons

1/2 pound ground pork (230g)
1/2 pound ground beef (230g)
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce (15ml)
2 tablespoons soy sauce (30ml)
1 tablespoon ginger, minced or grated
2 garlic cloves, minced or grated
1 scallion, minced
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil (5ml)
1 tablespoon honey (15ml)
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs (1 ounce; 30g)
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup hoisin sauce (60ml)
2 tablespoons ketchup (30ml)
1 tablespoon honey (15ml)
2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar (30ml)
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil (5ml)
1 tablespoon soy sauce (15ml)
1 scallion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (2g)

1
Adjust oven rack to center position and preheat oven to 375u00b0F (190u00b0C). Place all the meatball ingredients into a large mixing bowl and, using your hands, mix together until blended (but don't overmix).
2
With wet hands (to keep the meatballs from sticking), form 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized meatballs. (Using a 1/2 ounce portion scoop makes this easier but you can also do it by eye). Place balls about an inch apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake meatballs until just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
3
Meanwhile, combine all glaze ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently, and cook until mixture is slightly thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside and let cool.
4
Brush glaze onto meatballs and top with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve with extra hoisin glaze on the side for dipping.
