Vegetarian Mushroom Meatballs With Honey Ginger Glaze Recipes

VEGETARIAN MUSHROOM MEATBALLS WITH HONEY-GINGER GLAZE

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine 6 tablespoons soy sauce with the honey; warm over medium-low heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes (you should have about 1/3 cup). Stir in 2 teaspoons ginger and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Meanwhile, heat the oven to 375 degrees. Place crumbled vermicelli noodles in a small heatproof bowl and cover with boiling water by 1 inch. Cover and let stand until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain noodles, pressing to remove excess liquid. Cool and coarsely chop.
• In a food processor, pulse garlic until finely chopped. Add mushrooms and pulse just until finely chopped with some pea-size pieces remaining (do not purée); transfer to a large bowl. Repeat with bok choy, pulsing it then adding it to the large bowl. Add panko, egg, salt, cooled noodles and remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 2 teaspoons ginger and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the large bowl; mix until well blended. Form into 1 1/4-inch balls (about 2 teaspoons each; you should have about 24).
• Arrange meatballs on a greased baking sheet. Brush meatballs with half of the glaze and bake for 10 minutes. Brush meatballs with the remaining glaze, rotate baking sheet before returning to the oven, and bake until golden, 8 to 10 minutes longer. Transfer to serving plate and serve warm.

VEGETARIAN MUSHROOM MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Saute onion in the hot oil, about 7 minutes. Add mushrooms, increase heat to medium-high, and cook and stir until water evaporates and they brown nicely, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in garlic and transfer mixture into a mixing bowl; let cool.
• Stir oats, bread crumbs, 1/2 cup parsley, eggs, broth, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper into the mixture to combine. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for flavors and texture to develop, at least 2 hours, to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a rimmed baking sheet lightly.
• Form small balls from the mixture using a tablespoon as a measure. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat marinara sauce in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Remove meatballs from the oven and transfer to the sauce; cook over low heat for 15 minutes more. Garnish with Parmesan cheese and/or 1 teaspoon parsley.
