Method:

• Pre-heat oven to 180°c and place a heavy baking sheet on the middle shelf.
• Mix the meatball ingredients together until well combined and form into walnut sized meatballs. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and add the meatballs, replace the tray in the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes until well browned and cooked through.
• Meanwhile make the sauce. Heat the oil in a heavy based saucepan over a medium heat and then add the garlic — stirring until fragrant. After about 30 seconds add the rice wine vinegar and soy sauce. Next add the stock or water, sugar and gochujang/sriracha and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, add the sesame oil and allow the sauce to reduce by one third.
• Slake the cornflour with a little water then whisk into the sauce until well blended. Allow the sauce to reduce by half.
• Add the meatballs to the pan and turn to coat in the sauce. Allow them to heat through and the sauce to soak in for about 5-8 minutes.
• Tip onto a serving dish along with the sauce and garnish with sesame seeds and finely chopped spring onions.
