Everyday Pork Meatballs with Magic Miso-Mayo

 Ingredients:

1 egg
2 garlic cloves
2 scallions
1 TBS grated ginger
1 1/2 TBS soy sauce
1 TBS rice vinegar
1 tsp sesame oil
grated lime zest
salt, pepper
1 lb ground pork
1/4 C panko or breadcrumbs

1/2 C mayonnaise
1 tsp white miso paste
fresh lime juice

Preheat oven to 400.

In a medium bowl, beat the egg. Add garlic, scallions, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, lime zest, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, and stir. Add pork and panko and gently mix together with a fork or your hands. 

Shape the meat mixture into about 16 ping pong sized balls and put it on a baking sheet lined with foil for easier clean-up. Bake until just cooked through, about 15 minutes. Serve hot. 

In a small bowl, stir together miso mayo ingredients until smooth. Brush the tops of meatballs before baking if desired.
