Ingredients
  

For the Meatballs:

1 lb ground beef (or a mix of beef and pork)

1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs

1/4 cup finely chopped green onions

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon ginger, grated

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 egg, lightly beaten

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

For the Spicy Mayo Dip:

1/2 cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons Sriracha (adjust for heat preference)

1 teaspoon lime juice

1 teaspoon soy sauce

Pinch of paprika (optional for additional flavor)

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Mix Meatball Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef (or mixture), panko breadcrumbs, green onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, black pepper, and the beaten egg. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

      Form Meatballs: Using your hands, form the mixture into small meatballs (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spaced out evenly.

        Bake Meatballs: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and golden brown.

          Prepare Spicy Mayo Dip: While the meatballs are baking, prepare the dip. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Sriracha, lime juice, soy sauce, and paprika until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.

            Serve: Once the meatballs are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before transferring to a serving platter. Drizzle with additional soy sauce or sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired. Serve warm with the spicy mayo dip on the side.
