Directions

Preheat oven to 220C/430F.
Add all ingredients for meatballs, except for ground beef, to a bowl and mix well. Add breadcrumbs and ground beef, and lightly mix together.
Form mixture into 20-22 lime-sized balls and place on a baking tray.
Bake for 20-25 minutes till cooked through, and slightly brown.
Whisk together all sauce ingredients in a bowl and add it to a wok. Heat for a few minutes till thickened. Toss meatballs in sauce and serve hot. Enjoy!

Notes

If you want to swap ground beef with pork or chicken, just go for it. The baking time will not change and the meatballs are still good.
