Step 1

First make the pickled veg. Stir the vinegar and sugar in a small bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Season with a pinch of salt and stir in the carrots and cucumber. Set aside.

Step 2

Tip all the ingredients for the meatballs, except the oil, into a bowl along with a pinch of salt and pepper, and scrunch together using your hands until everything is well combined. Roll into 20 small balls, around 30g each. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and brown all over, about 8-10 mins, until dark brown and cooked through.

Step 3

Serve over sticky rice alongside the lime wedges for squeezing over, a little more sriracha, if you like, and the pickled veg.
