KOREAN MEATBALLS

Mix all of the ingredients well with your hands.
Shape in small balls (about 1-inch diameter) and
place on an ungreased rimmed baking sheet. Bake at
425º for about 10-15 minutes, until the meat is
cooked through, but still tender. Rinse in a colander
to remove any egg that has leaked out. Combine
with the marinade and simmer in a slow cooker
about 3-4 hours, stirring occasionally, or simmer,
covered, on lowest setting on stove about an hour
or so. These are good served with Apricot Ginger
Dipping Sauce (adds about 1 carb per serving).

MARINADE

Mix all ingredients in a small bowl.

These look yummy, think I will have to try them this week. Just had one question, where it says 1/3 cup onion,
minced, 1 3/4 ounces, does that mean 1 3/4 ounces of onion or is there something missing there?

Thanks

Here's a recipe from Korean Institute of Minnesota's cookbook:

Fried Meatballs (Wahn Ja Jun)

1/2 lb. meat, finely chopped or ground
3 T. flour
2 eggs
3 T. oil
SEASONING:
3 T. soy sauce
1 green onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 T. sesame seed
Mix beef and seasoning well. Shape into one-inch meatballs. Roll in flour, dip in egg, and fry slowly in oil. Turn often so all sides brown evenly. 4-6 servings.
