Preparation
Step 1
1. Preheat broiler. Line a heavy duty baking sheet; with aluminum foil and set aside. In a large bowl, combine all meatball ingredients. Using a wooden spoon or clean hands, mix thoroughly. Shape into 1-inch balls.
2. Place meatballs on prepared baking sheet and broil 6 inches from heat source for 8 to10 minutes, turning once.
3. Whisk together all sauce ingredients in a medium bowl, except slivered onions. Set aside. Place half of the slivered onions in the bottom of a 5-quart slow cooker. Add several meatballs at a time to the bowl or sauce. Coat meatballs with sauce and transfer to slow cooker using a slotted spoon. Repeat until all meatballs are well coated. Pour remaining sauce over meatballs and sprinkle with remaining slivered onions.
4. Cover and cook on LOW setting for 4 to 6 hours. Strain and defat the cooking liquid. Serve as sauce on the side. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
Tip: Occasionally wet hands with cold water when making meatballs. This
will prevent sticking.
