Cooking Steps
ā¢ Finely chop or crush garlic. ā¢ In a small bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, water and 1/2 the garlic. ā¢ In a large bowl, combine pork mince, panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients), egg, ginger paste, chicken stock powder and the remaining garlic. Using damp hands, form spoonfuls of the mixture into meatballs and transfer to a plate. You should get 5-6 meatballs per person.
ā¢ In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. ā¢ When oil is hot, cook meatballs until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes. In the last minute, add the honey-soy mixture and cook, stirring, until the meatballs are coated in the sauce. Remove from heat.
ā¢ Meanwhile, thinly slice celery. ā¢ In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, ponzu sauce, celery, slaw mix, baby spinach leaves and crushed peanuts. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
ā¢ Finely slice green chilli (if using). ā¢ Divide creamy ponzu slaw and honey-soy glazed pork meatballs between bowls. Spoon over any glaze from the pan. ā¢ Top with chilli. Tear over coriander.
