Asian Meatballs

Method

  1. To make the meatballs place all of the ingredients (except 1 tbsp of the sesame seeds) in a large bowl. Combine well and let the mix rest for 5 minutes. Moisten hands with water and roll mix into small balls and place on a tray lined with baking paper. Top each meatball with a sprinkle of the reserved seeds. Place the tray in a pre-heated 180C oven for 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, make the glazing sauce by combining the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until well combined.
  3. After 10 minutes of cooking, remove the tray from the oven and drizzle a tablespoon of the dipping sauce over each meatball. Then continue cooking for a further 5 minutes or until cooked through.
  4. To serve, cut the leaves off the top of the cos and witlof. Place the cos leaves on a serving platter and top each with a leaf of witlof, a meatball and a drizzle of sauce. Sprinkle with fresh greens and serve immediately.
