Korean BBQ Meatballs with Spicy Mayo Dip

Instructions:

1. Make the Meatballs:
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly.
Mix the Meatball Ingredients:
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, grated ginger, black pepper, and egg (if using). Mix gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatballs tender.
Form the Meatballs:
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake:
Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until browned and cooked through (internal temperature of 160°F/71°C).
2. Make the Spicy Mayo Dip:
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha, lime juice, and soy sauce (if using). Adjust the spice level to your liking.
3. Serve:
Arrange the warm meatballs on a serving plate.
Garnish with additional green onions, sesame seeds, or a drizzle of gochujang for extra flavor.
Serve with the spicy mayo dip on the side for dipping.
Tips:
Make It Spicier: Add a teaspoon of gochujang or chili flakes to the meatball mixture for a spicier kick.
For Extra Glaze: Brush the baked meatballs with a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, and sesame oil, and broil for 1-2 minutes.
Make Ahead: Form the meatballs and store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours before cooking.
Enjoy your flavorful and juicy Korean BBQ Meatballs with Spicy Mayo Dip—perfect for parties, snacks, or dinner! 🥩🔥
