Asian Style Sweet Sour Meatballs Recipes

SWEET AND SOUR ASIAN MEATBALLS WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Place the ground beef in a large bowl. Set aside. In a medium bowl, combine the milk, egg, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, ginger oil, salt, pepper, 5 spice powder, and garlic. Whisk to combine. Add mixture to the ground beef. Stir to combine.
• Add the carrot, mushroom, cilantro, parsley, green onion, and panko breadcrumbs to the meat mixture. Mix until combined. I find that hands work best for this. Form into golf ball sized portions and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. I like to use a Medium Cookie Scoop to ensure the balls are all evenly sized.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes, or until the insides are no longer pink and a thermometer registers 160 degrees F when inserted in the center of a meatball. Serve with sauce, vegetables, and brown jasmine rice.
• Combine the pineapple juice, ketchup, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, ginger oil, brown sugar, and cornstarch in a medium to large skillet. Cook until boiling, then reduce to a simmer. Add the meatballs, snow peas, bell pepper, and water chestnuts. Cook until the sauce coats the meatballs and the vegetables are tender.
• Serve with brown jasmine rice and a sprinkle of sesame seeds on top.

• Meanwhile make the Sweet and Sour Sauce: in sauce pot on medium heat whisk together vinegar, sugar, tomato paste, the tapioca starch or cornstarch, the cup of water (or water/pineapple juice mix) Bring to boil stirring while cooking. (I find using a whisk to stir works very well).
• When mixture reaches boiling point add the meatballs and heat through.
• Add the carrots, peppers and pineapple chunks and cook until vegetables are 'just done'. Do not overcook.
• NOTE: This can be made ahead and refrigerated. It can then be quickly reheated in the microwave and kept hot in a Crockpot. This freezes well.

FOREVERMAMA'S SWEET AND SOUR MEATBALLS - ASIAN STYLE

Steps:

• Meatballs:.
• In a bowl; mix the ground pork with the sesame oil until well mixed, then mix in the cornstarch, egg and soy sauce.
• Prior to shaping the meatballs, have a plate ready to set your meatballs inches Wet your hands under cold water. Take small portions of the meat mixture, about the size of walnuts, and roll them in-between your palms, shaping them into balls. Keep wetting your hands as to prevent the meat from sticking to your hands. This will also help in producing an even, smooth surface. Once all meatballs have been shaped and placed in plate; set aside.
• Preparing Sweet and Sour Sauce:.
• In a bowl; blend the cornstarch with the water. Add the sherry, soy sauce, tomato paste, sugar, and vinegar. Drain the liquid from the pineapple and add liquid to the sauce mixture. Set the pineapple chunks aside.
• Heat the 3 tablespoons of oil in a wok or skillet and fry the meatballs until evenly browned and cooked through. Remove them from pan using a draining-spoon and place on a paper-towel lined plate.
• To the hot wok or skillet add more oil if necessary. To the hot oil, add the onion, peppers and carrots. Stir fry for about 5 - 9 minutes until slightly softened.
• Give the sauce mixture a stir; pour it into the pan and bring to a boil, stirring all the time. Stir in the meatballs and pineapple chunks and cook, stirring over reduced heat for about 3-5 minutes. Serve hot with rice.
• NOTE: When I have brought this to different events I've transferred the completed cooked recipe into a crock pot to keep it warm for a potluck service. These have always disappeared.
