ASIAN MEATBALLS (AS A SIDE DISH)



Asian Meatballs (As a Side Dish) image

A wonderfully easy side dish to compliment an Asian meal. (Uses store bought meatballs.) got the idea from another recipe here, and changed it to my tastes. I made lots of sauce and after I removed the meatballs from it I used it in a stir fry, so I only used 1 bag of meatballs. I'm sure homemade meatballs would be better if you have the time. It would be so easy to just heat up the meatballs in a purchased stir fry sauce too.

Time 20m

Yield 32 1 oz meatballs, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (16 ounce) bags precooked frozen meatballs
3 cups water
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup honey
1/8 cup honey-flavored barbecue sauce
1/8 cup lemon juice
1/8 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon sake
1 tablespoon mirin
1/3-1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch

Steps:

  • Pour all ingredients (except the meatballs) into a pot, stir well to combine. Bring to a full boil, making sure that the cornstarch is incorporated before the liquid heats up.
  • Add the meatballs. Bring back to a simmer, reduce heat and cook until warmed through, 10-15 minutes.
  • I let mine cook for an hour and a half over low heat, since you can't really overcook them. You just need to stir the pot occasionally to make sure the sauce doesn't stick.
