Instructions

  1. Score the white part of the scallion. Flaten it out and slice it thinly. Set it aside in cold water. 
  2. Combine ground beef, onion, carrot, bread crumbs, soy sauce, ginger, egg, sake, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix well.
  3. Grab a small chunk of the mixture in one hand and squeeze the meat out and scoop with a spoon in the other hand. 
  4. Repeat same for rest of the ground meat mixture. 
  5. Heat oil in a pan to 170°C ( 338°F) and add the meatballs to deep fry.
  6. When the meatballs become golden brown outside, remove from the deep frying oil. 
  7. Prepare the teriyaki sauce by mixing together soy sauce, sake, sugar, mirin, and water and heat in a small pan until it becomes a slightly thick consistency.
  8. Add the deep fried meatballs into the teriyaki sauce to coat with the sauce. 
  9. Turn the heat off and serve into a shallow bowl. 
  10. Drain the water off the thinly sliced scallion. Sprinkle sesame seeds over and top meatballs with sliced scallion. 

Notes

  • *1 If you are going to deep fry like I did, you need more than 15ml. I measured how much oil absorbed in the cooking process to calculate nutrition fact as accurate as possible.
