Four Happiness Pork Recipes

Steps:

• Place sesame seeds in a small frying pan over medium heat; cook, shaking pan frequently, until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Immediately remove from pan to cool. Combine meatball ingredients in a medium bowl; mix well. Shape mixture into 1-inch diameter balls. Combine glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Place a wide nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add oil, swirling to coat sides. Add meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and meat is no longer pink in center, 6 to 8 minutes (cut to test). Drain oil from pan. Pour glazing mixture over meatballs; cook over high heat until meatballs are nicely glazed, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
