with Creamy Ponzu Slaw

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

  • Keep an eye out...Due to recent sourcing challenges, we’ve replaced green chilli with red chilli, which may be a little different to what’s pictured. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!*

Cooking Steps

1
1

Finely grate the ginger. Finely chop the garlic. In a small bowl, add the honey, soy sauce, water and 1/2 the garlic. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine the pork mince, panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients), ginger, egg, chicken-style stock powder and the remaining garlic. Using damp hands, form spoonfuls of the pork mixture into meatballs and transfer to a plate. You should get 5-6 meatballs per person.

Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the meatballs, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes.

In the last minute of cook time, add the honey-soy mixture and cook, stirring, until the meatballs are coated in the sauce. Remove from the heat.

While the meatballs are cooking, thinly slice the celery. In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ponzu sauce, celery, slaw mix, baby spinach leaves and crushed peanuts. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.

Thinly slice the long red chilli (if using). Divide the creamy ponzu slaw and sticky pork and ginger meatballs between bowls. Spoon over any excess glaze from the pan. Top with the chilli. Tear over the coriander.
