Fireballs
Servings: 6 to 8 appetizer servings
- 1 pound ground venison
- 1/4 pound ground pork
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger peeled and minced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 3 green onions minced
- 1 egg beaten
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Sriracha hot chili sauce to taste
- toothpicks
In a bowl, combine all ingredients except Sriracha. Use your (clean) hands to mix ingredients thoroughly. Form some of the mixture into a ball, about 3/4 the size of a golf ball, and press together. The mixture should be a little moist while holding together with mild pressure. If it falls apart easily, add some breadcrumbs as a binder.
Form the mixture into balls, and place on a lightly greased baking pan. Place in a preheated 375-degree oven until evenly browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Place a small dollop of Sriracha on the top of each meatball, and stab with toothpick.
