Sticky Ginger Beef & Pork Meatballs

with Avocado Slaw & Ponzu Mayo Dressing

Revisit the classic honey-soy duo, but add a signature HelloFresh twist! We've created tender beef & pork meatballs, which we add to a vibrant and creamy slaw with an extra burst of flavour from ponzu sauce - a Japanese pantry staple with a kick of citrus. Sprinkle over some spring onion and go for your life.
