GARLIC AND GINGER PORK MEATBALLS
These Pork Meatballs with Garlic and Ginger pack in a ton of flavour for only being made with 7 simple ingredients! They're super quick and easy to make, are a great snack any time of day or make the perfect addition to any Asian inspired meal.
Servings 12 Meatballs
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 1/4- inch knob Fresh Ginger finely minced
- 1 tsp Sriracha optional
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- Avocado Oil for frying
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a bowl.
- Use your hands to gently combine being careful not to overwork the meat.
- Form 12 medium sized uniform meatballs.
- 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°F 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.
