What You Need to Cook This

For the Meatballs:

• 1 kilogram of ground beef
• 1 big yellow onion cut into tiny pieces
• 1 tablespoon of garlic that’s already chopped up
• 1 tablespoon of ginger that’s already chopped up
• 1/4 cup of soy sauce (it’s a brown sauce from Asia)
• 1/4 cup of hoisin sauce (another yummy brown sauce)
• 1/4 cup of brown sugar
• 4 green onions chopped up
• 1 tablespoon of sesame oil

• 1 bottle of honey soy sauce mix

Tools You’ll Need

• A slow cooker (the big pot that cooks things slowly)

How to Make Yummy Asian-Style Meatballs

1. Put all the ingredients in a big bowl. Use your hands or a big spoon to mix them really well. Keep mixing until everything looks the same color.
2. Use your hands to roll the mixture into balls. Roll them so they are as big as a golf ball. You should be able to make about 44 meatballs. Don’t worry if some are a little bigger or smaller!
3. Carefully put all the meatballs into your slow cooker. If they don’t fit in one layer, make two layers. That’s okay!
4. Pour the whole bottle of honey soy sauce mix over all the meatballs. Make sure the sauce covers them.
5. Put the lid on the slow cooker. Turn it to low heat. Let it cook for 2 hours. Then, be very gentle and move the meatballs around a little bit so they don’t stick together. Cook for 2 more hours.
6. If the sauce looks too watery, you can make it thicker. Mix a little bit of corn flour with water. Add it to the slow cooker and stir.
