Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground pork
• 100 grams Gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 1 large Eggs
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 Green onions, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Tamari soy sauce (gluten-free)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, gluten-free breadcrumbs, and egg. Mix well until the ingredients are just combined.

Step 2

Add the minced garlic, chopped green onions, tamari soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper to the pork mixture. Mix until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Step 3

Take small portions of the mixture (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into balls using your hands. Continue until all the mixture is used up, placing the formed balls onto a plate.

Step 4

Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the pork balls in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.

Step 5

Cook the pork balls for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown on all sides and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).

Step 6

Repeat the cooking process with the remaining pork balls, adding more oil to the pan if necessary.

Step 7

Once all the pork balls are cooked, transfer them to a serving dish. Serve the gluten-free savory pork balls hot with your choice of dipping sauce or garnish with additional chopped green onions.
