Sticky Asian Pork Meatballs

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180ºC.

Step 2

Place the pork mince, fresh ginger, garlic, egg and crackers in a medium bowl. Using a wooden spoon (or your hands) mix well. Roll the mince into meatballs in large tablespoon balls. Place on a baking tray to get ready for browning.

Step 3

In an oven safe pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Brown the meatballs in batches until they're each golden on all sides. You may want to do this in batches so that you have time to turn each meatball without them over browning.

Step 4

Place all the meatballs back in the pan and set aside while you make the glaze.

Step 5

To make the glaze, mix the hoisin garlic sauce, soy sauce, ginger and garlic together in a small bowl or jug. Add in some water until your desired consistency is reached. Pour the sauce over the meatballs and bring to a gentle simmer.

Step 6

Place the meatballs into the preheated oven (180c) for about 15-20 minutes, until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened to a glaze.
