To have in front of the tele-box with some fizzy pop.
You will have leftovers. This is deliberate.
You will need:
1 packet of pork mince (around 500g but less is fine - do not alter the other ingredients)
4-6 spring onions (depending on length and girth) finely sliced into little rings
2 garlic cloves crushed
8-10 dried shiitake mushrooms, soaked in hot water, drained and finely chopped
1 tablespoon of soy sauce
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
1 tablespoon of thai sweet chilli sauce
1 large handful of coriander (stalks and all) chopped
1 beaten egg
To serve:
1 butter-head, or other soft lettuce
Thai sweet chilli sauce
Method:
Mix all the ingredients together, form into ping pong sized balls and put in the fridge to chill.
Preheat the oven to 200C.
Line a baking sheet with greaseproof paper.
Bake the balls on the sheet for around 25 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
Wrap each meatball in a soft butter-head lettuce leaf and dunk into a pot of thai sweet chilli 'sawse'.
These are even better cold......
This is a blog for solitary diners of every sort. For gluttons and hedonists. For people who can cook, who think they can’t cook and for those who genuinely can’t. For those who get home from work early and those who get home late. Everyone. That said, it is not for the people who say “I forgot to eat”. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? These people, in my humble opinion, should be tied naked to the front of a gritter lorry and pelted with supermarket egg mayonnaise.
