Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Meatball Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, minced lemongrass, minced garlic, grated ginger, fish sauce, brown sugar, chopped cilantro, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Meatballs

    Using your hands, shape the mixture into small meatballs (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on a plate.

  3. 3

    Fry the Meatballs

    Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the meatballs in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per batch.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the meatballs from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with marinated cucumber salad.
