Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400℉ (204℃). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix all the meatball ingredients together in a large bowl. Shape into 1 inch in diameter meatballs and place them on the prepared baking sheet. 
  3. Bake the meatballs for 25 minutes or until just slight brown and no longer pink inside.
  4. In the meantime, mix all the sauce ingredients together.
  5. Toss the meatballs together with the sauce and pour into your crockpot. Cook on low for 2 hours. The sauce will reduce and thicken a bit.
  6. Serve garnished with additional chopped green onion or sesame seeds.

Notes

  • This recipe should yield about 36 meatballs.
  • For a sweeter twist, you can add a touch of honey or brown sugar to the sauce mixture.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, adjust the amount of Sriracha sauce to your taste.
  • Don't skip the step of baking the meatballs before placing them in the crockpot. This ensures they hold their shape and don't fall apart during slow cooking.
  • To make prep even quicker, you can shape the meatballs ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator until you're ready to bake.
  • These Asian meatballs are versatile; serve them as an appetizer, over rice, or even in a sandwich for a delightful meal.
