    Meatballs
    • 500g Pork Mince.
    • 1½ Tablespoons Ginger, finely chopped.
    • 2 Garlic Cloves, finely chopped.
    • 3 Spring Onions, finely chopped.
    • 1½ Tablespoons Light Soy Sauce.

    Method

    • Place all ingredients for the meatballs, in a large mixing bowl and mix with hands until it is all combined (be rough with it as this will tenderise the meat).
    • Once the mixture is combined, roll into 3cm balls.
    • Place oil in a wok and heat on high until the surface starts to shimmer and then reduce to low – medium heat.
    • Place 4 – 6 balls in and fry for 2 minutes on each side or until cooked.
    • Remove from oil with a slotted spoon and put into a deep Pyrex dish.
    • Repeat steps 3 – 5 until all of the meatballs are cooked.
    • Heat oven to 160°C.
    • Combine the sauce ingredients (except the oil) into a bowl and mix until all combine.
    • Pour over meatballs, cover and place in the oven and cook for 2 hours.
    • When ready, remove from oven. Add a few meatballs on a bed of steamed rice and top with sauce.
