Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g ground pork
- 100 g button mushrooms
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 50 g panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 stalks green onion
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp ginger
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
Finely chop the button mushrooms and green onions. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped mushrooms, green onions, garlic, ginger, panko breadcrumbs, egg, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly with your hands or a spoon until well combined.
Using your hands, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into meatballs, roughly the size of a golf ball. This should make about 18-20 meatballs.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully add the meatballs to the pan, making sure not to overcrowd them. Cook in batches if necessary.
Sear the meatballs on all sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let the meatballs cook through for an additional 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally.
Remove the meatballs from the pan and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve hot as an appetizer with dipping sauce, or pair with steamed rice and vegetables for a complete meal.
