  • 1 cup Panko Breadcrumbs (or regular breadcrumbs)
  • 1 large Egg
  • 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp Ginger (grated)
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce (use tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tbsp Gochujang (Korean chili paste)

  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch Slurry (for thickening)
  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Gochujang
  • 1 tbsp Lime Juice

Instructions

  1. Combine the Meatball Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef (or beef-pork mix), panko breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, gochujang, brown sugar, sesame oil, salt, black pepper, and chopped green onions. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are well combined.
  2. Shape the Meatballs: Scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into 1-inch meatballs. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Bake the Meatballs: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Bake the meatballs for 15-20 minutes or until they are browned and cooked through.
  4. Prepare the Spicy Mayo Dip: In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, gochujang, lime juice, honey, and garlic powder. Stir until smooth.
  5. Thicken the Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), gochujang, rice vinegar, and a cornstarch slurry. Heat on low until thickened.
  6. Glaze the Meatballs (Optional): Glaze them with the sauce for the last few minutes of cooking to caramelize slightly.
  7. Serve with a Smile: Serve the meatballs with the spicy mayo dip on the side, garnished with green onions if desired.
