Categories: Beef, Poultry, Appetisers, Sauces
Yield: 100 Servings
3 lb Lean ground beef
3 lb Ground turkey
1 lg Yellow onion; minced
6 Egg whites; whisked
1/2 c Gingersnaps; crushed
4 tb Fresh ginger; grated
2 tb Soy sauce
MMMMM----------------------HOT GINGER SAUCE---------------------------
1/2 c Vegetable oil
1/2 c All-purpose flour
1 qt Chicken stock
1 c Dry sherry
2/3 c Hoisin sauce
2/3 c Gingersnap; crushed
3/4 c Rice vinegar
1/4 c Soy sauce
1/2 c Fresh ginger; grated
1 1/2 ts Red-pepper flakes
Salt & black pepper
2 bn Fresh scallions; in thin
- slices diagonal
3/4 c Sesame seeds; toasted
In a large mixing bowl, crumble the ground beef and turkey.
Lightly stir in the onions and then the egg whites. Add the
gingersnaps, ginger, and soy sauce. Using your hands, mix
thoroughly and shape the mixture into walnut-sized
meatballs.
Using a non-stick vegetable spray, lightly coat 3 to 4
cookie sheets. On the sheets, arrange each meatball in a
single-layer as you form them. Cover and refrigerate the
meatballs for at least 1 hour.
In a preheated, 350ºF/175ºC. oven, bake the meatballs
uncovered until done, about 20 minutes.
TO MAKE THE SAUCE: Meanwhile, in a large soup pot over
medium heat, heat the oil. Stir in the flour and cook to
make make a golden roux. Pour in the chicken stock and
sherry. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring. Add hoisin
sauce, gingersnaps, 1/2 cup of the vinegar, the soy sauce,
ginger, and red pepper flake, to taste. Stir to mix. Reduce
the heat and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to
keep the sauce from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
Taste and adjust seasonings, add the salt, pepper, and
remaining vinegar. Add additional red pepper flake, if
desired. Add the meatballs to the sauce and simmer for an
additional 30 minutes.
TO SERVE; In a chafing dish, make a mound of the meatballs
and pour the ginger sauce over them. Sprinkle on the sliced
scallions and the sesame seeds. Or on a small plate, you can
serve 2 to 3 meatballs on a butterhead lettuce leaf. Serve
with toothpicks or forks.
Makes 24 cocktail-sized servings or 100 meatballs.
