The rice recipe is twist of Rachael Ray's--we had it a few weeks ago and we loved it! Again, I changed it up a little to what I had on hand. Since I am already reusing the recipe for something else--clearly it was a hit!
Asian Meatballs
2 green onions, finely chopped
1 egg
1 1/2 Tbsp soy sauce
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup finely chopped water chestnuts
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger
1 pound pork sausage (no flavorings like breakfast or Italian--just plain sausage)
1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Chili Sauce for serving (like Sriracha)
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Place all ingredients (except for chili sauce) in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Shape into one inch balls and place on an ungreased broiler pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until no longer pink. Serve with hot sauce for dipping.
Sesame Rice
2 1/4 cups chicken stock
1 cup brown basmati rice
2 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds
2 Tbsp green onions, finely chopped
1 1/2 Tbsp sesame oil
In a medium pot, bring chicken stock to boil. Stir in rice and bring back to a boil. Cover pot and reduce heat to a low simmer. Simmer for approximately 1 hour or until rice is cooked through (brown rice always takes much longer--mine is usually just shy of an hour). To serve, fluff rice and stir in sesame seeds, green onions and sesame oil. Season with salt if needed.

This sounds amazing! Serving with Sriracha? WOW - that is some HOT stuff! LOL! :)
These sound great, Jackie. I'm just imagining that little crunch the water chestnuts must give..mmmm! Last week I HAD to go out and get stuff for nachos (thanks for that, btw...yum!) and now I'm craving meatballs, LOL! What spell do you have over me, woman? tee hee. Thanks for sharing with the hearth and soul hop =)
What a great dinner, thanks.
This looks excellent. Got to try this one day - yes, it'll be on my every-growing to-do list.
I found your blog through Tasty Tuesday...I'm trying this! Thanks for the inspiration. The meatballs sound great!
What a great idea to use sausage in the Asian meatballs! I am going to get the stuff and make these soon. I have a mild Asian food addiction so this look soooo delicious to me. Your photograph is awesome too! I love how you captured the plate. Great job! Thanks so much for sharing your recipe! Candace
Hi Jackie,

I want to try the rice. It seems like such a great and simple way to add flavor to it.
