Instructions
Prepare Aromatics
Finely mince garlic, shallots, and onion.
Time: PT5M
Sauté Aromatics
Heat 60 ml cooking oil in a pan over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic, shallots, and onion until they turn lightly golden, about 2 minutes.
Time: PT2M
Temperature: medium
Cool Aromatics
Remove the pan from heat and let the aromatics cool for 2 minutes.
Time: PT2M
Mix Meatball Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl combine pork mince, the cooled aromatics, diced cassava, chopped cilantro & green onion, 1.5 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp seasoning powder, 0.5 tbsp ground pepper, and 0.5 tbsp soy sauce. Mix thoroughly until the mixture becomes sticky.
Time: PT5M
Marinate
Cover the bowl and let the meat mixture rest for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Time: PT10M
Shape Meatballs
With wet hands, shape the mixture into 38 g balls (about 12‑14 balls).
Time: PT5M
Prepare Steamer
Lightly brush the steamer rack or plate with a thin layer of cooking oil to prevent sticking.
Time: PT2M
Steam Meatballs
Place the meatballs in the steamer over simmering water, cover, and steam on medium heat for 10 minutes until cooked through.
Time: PT10M
Temperature: medium
Blend Tomato Base
While the meatballs steam, combine the chopped tomatoes and deseeded bird’s eye chili in a blender and puree until smooth.
Time: PT3M
Cook Sauce Base
Return the pan with the leftover aromatics to the stove, add the tomato‑chili puree and 500 ml water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium‑high heat.
Time: PT5M
Temperature: medium‑high
Season Sauce
Add 2 tbsp sugar, 2 tbsp tomato paste, 1 tbsp fish sauce, 1 tbsp seasoning powder, and 0.5 tbsp MSG. Stir until fully dissolved.
Time: PT2M
Thicken Sauce
Mix 0.5 tbsp cornstarch with 1 tbsp water to form a slurry, then slowly pour into the simmering sauce while stirring.
Time: PT2M
Simmer Meatballs in Sauce
Gently add the steamed meatballs to the sauce, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally so the balls absorb the flavor.
Time: PT10M
Temperature: low
Finish and Garnish
Stir in the remaining chopped cilantro, turn off the heat, and let the dish rest for 2 minutes.
Time: PT2M
