PORK MEATBALLS WITH GARLIC AND GINGER

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Ground Pork
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, finely minced
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce, Tamari or Coconut Aminos
  • 2 tbsp Green Onion, finely sliced, plus more for garnish
  • 1 1/4-inch knob Ginger, finely minced
  • 1 tsp Sriracha, optional
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste
  • Avocado Oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Add all the ingredients to a bowl. Use your hands to gently combine being careful not to overwork the meat.

  3. Add enough avocado oil to the bottom of a skillet and heat on medium heat. Once hot, add the meatballs in a single layer (work in batches if you have to). Cook for 5-7 minutes in total, flipping and rotating the meatballs on all sides throughout to ensure even browning and cooking on all sides. Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired and serve immediately or add to things like soups, stews or Asian inspired dishes.

Notes

 

If you prefer to bake these Pork Meatballs instead, pop them in a 400° oven for 15-20 minutes flipping halfway through. Broil your meatballs in the last couple of minutes to get that nice brown coating you generally get with frying.
