Pork Mushroom And Soy Sauce Meatballs Recipes

PORK APPLE MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
• Place the dried mushrooms in a bowl. Pour 1/4 cup of warm water over the mushrooms; allow to soak until the mushrooms have rehydrated, about 30 minutes. Drain, reserving the water, and set both the mushrooms and water aside.
• Combine the ground pork, carrots, onion, garlic, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, the drained mushrooms, and the egg white in a large bowl; mix with hands until evenly combined. Form the mixture into 16 meatballs; arrange into the prepared baking dish.
• Stir the reserved water from the mushrooms, the applesauce, 1/4 cup water, maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and brown sugar together in a bowl; pour over the meatballs. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove the foil from the dish and continue baking until the meatballs are cooked through and no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes more.

PORK, MUSHROOM AND SOY SAUCE MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to a moderate heat.
• Heat the oil in a sauté pan (preferably non-stick), add the onion and garlic, and sauté, while stirring, until the onion and garlic are soft but not browned.
• Add the chopped mushrooms and sauté, while stirring, until the mushrooms are just soft.
• Allow the onion, garlic and mushrooms to cool. If you transfer the onion/garlic/mushroom mixture to a plate (which is at room temperature), 5-10 minutes cooling time is ample.
• Combine the cooled mushroom mixture, minced veal/pork, egg, breadcrumbs, soy sauce, Greek seasoning and ground ginger in a bowl and mix until the ingredients are well-combined.
• Roll the mixture into balls, slightly larger than a walnut and slightly smaller than a golf ball. You should get about 60 meatballs from the mixture.
• Place the meatballs on lightly greased oven trays, turning them over once after you place them on the trays so that they are lightly oiled on the top.
• Cover the trays loosely with aluminium foil and bake the meatballs in a moderate oven for about 45 minutes, or until they are cooked all the way through.
• Add to soup or serve with your favourite spaghetti sauce over pasta.
• Chef's Note: These meatballs can be frozen. And unless you have a super-large ravenous family or you're feeding half the neighbourhood, you may well want to freeze some of the meatballs.

MEATBALLS WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the meatballs: Add all the meatball ingredients (excluding the vegetable oil) to a large bowl and mix well using your hands. Shape into 1 inch meatballs. You should get about 40 to 50 meatballs.
• Prep for cooking: Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Add some vegetable oil to a large skillet, about 1/4 cup and heat it over medium-high heat.
• Cook the meatballs: Add meatballs to the skillet and cook. If not all meatballs fit in the skillet you will have to do this in a couple batches. Cook the meatballs on all sides, adding more oil if needed in between batches. Remove meatballs from skillet to prepared baking sheet, to soak up the oil.
• Saute the mushrooms: Discard any leftover oil from the skillet and add the butter and melt. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and saute for about 5 minutes until they start to brown.
• Create the sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir, cook for about 1 minute to remove the raw taste of flour. Add the white wine, heavy cream and chicken broth. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce should thicken and reduce a bit. If the sauce is too thick add a bit more heavy cream or chicken broth.
• Finish the dish: Add the meatballs to the mushroom sauce and toss them around making sure they're covered in the sauce. Cook for 2 more minutes until they heat through, then garnish with fresh parsley or dill. Serve over mashed potatoes, noodles or rice.

MEATBALLS WITH CREAMY MUSHROOMS & MASH

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling water for 15 mins until tender. Drain, return to the pan, add the butter, milk and season, then mash until smooth. Keep warm until you're ready to serve.
• Meanwhile, combine the mince, parmesan, grated apple and some seasoning. Shape the mixture into ping-pong-ball-sized meatballs. Heat half the oil in a wide pan over a medium heat. Fry the meatballs for a few minutes, stirring, until golden all over. Transfer to a plate.
• Heat the remaining oil in the pan, and fry the onion for 8-10 mins until soft and translucent. Add the garlic, mushrooms and thyme, then season and fry for 10 mins more until the mushrooms are soft and most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir in the crème fraîche.
• Cook the peas or green beans in a pan of boiling water for a few minutes until tender. Drain and leave to steam-dry. Stir the meatballs through the sauce and cook for 1-2 mins until hot and cooked through, then season. If you want to make the meatballs ahead, leave to cool. Will keep chilled for up to a day. Reheat thoroughly. Serve alongside the mash and veg.

ROASTED PORK MEATBALLS WITH GARLIC MUSHROOMS
