Ingredients

Servings

Meatballs

  • 1 lb ground pork 90/10 lean
  • 1 egg large
  • 1/4 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs (28 grams)
  • 1/4 cup Italian cheese blend 20 grams, Wegmans, grated; includes Pecorino Romano and Parmigiano Reggiano
  • 1 tbsp gochujang 18 grams, brand O'Food, Korean chili sauce
  • 1 tsp korean red pepper flakes or chili powder
  • 1 tsp Garlic Lover's Seasoning Flavor God brand
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Sauce

  • 3 tbsp apricot preserves 120 grams
  • 3 tbsp peach preserves 120 grams
  • 2 tbsp gochujang 36 grams, brand O'Food, Korean chili sauce

Optional Toppings

  • green onions chopped
  • sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Add all meatball ingredients to a large bowl and combine with your hands until the ingredients are well distributed in the ground pork. Use a cookie scoop to help form meatballs, rolling them in your hands to create smooth, round balls about 1 to 1.5" in diameter. Set the raw meatballs aside on a baking sheet.
  2. Pre-heat air fryer to 400°F. After pre-heating, I like to add a parchment paper liner to my air fryer tray to make cleanup easy. Add meatballs to your air fryer tray in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd. (Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook these in 2 batches.)
  3. Air fry meatballs for 8-10 minutes or until cooked through. Once cooked, remove meatballs from air fryer tray with tongs, allowing excess juices to drip off for a moment before moving the meatballs to a bowl.
  4. Whisk apricot preserves and gochujang until well blended, then pour over meatballs and toss until evenly coated. Top meatballs with sesame seeds and green onions before serving, if desired.
