Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 200 degrees C or 400 degrees F.
Meatballs:
-
Mix together all of the meatball ingredients in a large bowl until well-combined. Spoon out 1½-inch of meat mixture with a cookie scoop (or tablespoon). Shape into balls and place onto 2 large baking sheets or trays lined with baking or parchment paper.
-
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden browned and cooked through.
-
While the meatballs are baking, make the sauce.
Sauce:
-
Heat a medium-sized pot over medium-high heat. Whisk all of the sauce ingredients together (except cornstarch and water mixture) in the pan until well blended.
-
Bring to a simmer, pour the cornstarch mixture in and give it a quick good mix until it dissolves into the sauce.
-
Continue cooking for about 5 minutes or until sauce thickens, while stirring occasionally to prevent burning or sticking on the bottom of the pan.
Coat:
-
When meatballs have finished cooking, pour ¾ of the sauce over them and toss gently to evenly coat. Transfer the glazed meatballs to a serving dish or tray.
-
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions (if desired), and serve warm with toothpicks or mini forks, and with remaining sauce for dipping.
