Sweet and Spicy Korean-Style Cocktail Meatballs

Ingredients
  • ½ lb ground pork
  • ½ lb ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon gochujang (spicy Korean chili paste)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced or grated
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced or grated
  • 1 scallion, minced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
Gochujang-Honey Glaze:
  • 2-4 tablespoons gochujang (start with 2 and taste)
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar (unseasoned)
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Garnish:
  • Scallion, thinly sliced
  • Toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F / 190ºC
  2. Place all the meatball ingredients into a large mixing bowl and, using your hands, mix together until completely blended (but don’t over-mix).
  3. With wet hands (to keep the meatballs from sticking), form 1 – 1½ tablespoon sized meatballs (Using a small portion scoop makes this easier but you could do it by eye). Place balls about an inch apart onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake meatballs for 15 to 20 minutes or until just cooked through.
  4. Meanwhile combine all glaze ingredients in small pot. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until mixture is slightly thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside and let cool.
  5. Brush glaze onto meatballs and top with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve with extra gochujang glaze on the side for dipping.
