ASIAN MEATBALLS WITH RICE NOODLES



Asian Meatballs With Rice Noodles image

Submitted for RSC #9. This whole recipe was a new experience for me...I was so happy it worked out! I made it as a last effort for the contest after 2 failed recipes. I knew what fresh Asian flavors I liked together so that is what inspired the meatballs. I was impressed with how flavorful they turned out! They did end up a little hot so feel free to cut down on the peppers. I loved the rice noodles so much that they will be come a regular quick meal in my home. I love the suggestions from reviewers to bake the meatballs. Why didn't I think of that? I do think the sesame oil is a very important flavor enhancer for the noodles. Thanks to everyone who tried this for the contest!

Coarse salt
1 cup long-grain white rice
1 carrot, shredded
3/4 cup fresh breadcrumbs
1 1/2 pounds ground dark-meat turkey or ground pork
3 scallions, white and green parts separated and thinly sliced

4 teaspoons hot-pepper sauce (preferably Sriracha)
4 teaspoons sugar

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your meatballs will taste. If possible, use organic and locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season your meatballs well. A good balance of salt, pepper, and other spices will help them to flavor. Experiment with different flavor combinations to find your favorites.
  • Brown the Meatballs: Browning the meatballs before simmering them in the sauce will help to develop their flavor and texture. Be sure to brown them in a hot pan over medium-high heat.
  • Simmer Gently: Once the meatballs are browned, simmer them in the sauce over low heat for at least 30 minutes. This will help them to become tender and flavorful.
  • Serve with Rice: Meatballs and rice are a classic combination. Serve the meatballs over a bed of steamed rice, and top with the sauce.
