Ingredients

Servings

For the meatballs:

  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 1 egg whisked, yolk
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon ginger grated or finely minced (about 1-inch knob, fresh
  • 2 cloves garlic , pressed or finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • ¼ cup green onion about 3 green onions, chopped
  • ¼ cup cilantro minced, fresh leaves
  • ½ cup panko bread crumbs

For the meatball sauce:

  • ¾ cup Sriracha ketchup Kroger brand
  • ¼ cup ketchup regular
  • 1 10- ounce pepper jelly jar
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • green onion for garnish
  • sesame seed for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, add the pork and drizzle with the egg yolk, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and ground pepper and gently mix together with your fingers. Add the green onion, cilantro leaves and panko bread crumbs and mix gently until incorporated. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  3. Use a small scoop or spoon to form ½-inch balls and gently roll between your palms and place on the baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown. The meatballs may not be cooked all the way through and will continue to cook in the slow cooker. Transfer to a slow cooker.
  4. For the sauce, in a medium size bowl or 4 cup measuring cup, mix the Sriracha ketchup with the regular ketchup, pepper jelly, soy sauce, brown sugar and sesame oil. Pour over the meatballs and cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 4-6 hours.
  5. Garnish with chopped green onion and sesame seeds and serve.

Notes

  • *If you can’t find sriracha ketchup at your local grocery store, I recommend starting with the same amount of ketchup and adding 1 teaspoon of Sriracha to begin. From there, you can up the amount by 1 teaspoon at a time to taste.
