Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground turkey or ground beef
1 1/2 cups minced leeks (white and light green part only, about one bunch)
2 fresh chili peppers, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons sesame oil
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Place all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Knead well by hand until the ingredients are
thoroughly combined, but do not over-mix.

covered, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
Drain on a paper towel.

Serve over a bed of simple steamed greens.
Place meatballs into freezer to freeze and pop into a soup for a quick dinner option.
