Chinese Meatball Sliders with Pineapple Salad
This recipe is from the Food Network magazine and was good but will be even better next time when I stick to the recipe!! I did not have slider rolls so decided to make full size burgers then instead of the oven method went with stove-top --the outside got darkened but inside raw so needed to go into the oven to finish --bottom line bake !! AND OH BY THE WAY --we pout the pineapple slaw on the burger - it was suggested on the side...
***** Remade these last weekend here is how they look as sliders :)
Cooking spray
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon rice vinegar (not seasoned)
12 ounces ground pork
2 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
1 scallion (white and light green parts only), sliced
1 teaspoon grated peeled ginger
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 small head green cabbage, roughly chopped
2 small carrots, roughly chopped
1/2 cup chopped pineapple
1 tablespoon mayonnaise, plus more for the buns
12 mini potato slider buns, split
Shredded romaine lettuce, for serving
Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Combine 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce and 1 teaspoon rice vinegar in a small bowl; set aside.
Combine the pork, panko, the remaining 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce, the scallion, ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl. With dampened hands, roll the mixture into twelve 1 1/2-inch meatballs; transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake, turning once, until browned and cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Remove from the oven and brush with the reserved hoisin sauce mixture.
Meanwhile, combine the cabbage, carrots and pineapple in a food processor. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, the mayonnaise and 1/2 teaspoon salt and pulse until roughly chopped.
Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun, then fill with some shredded lettuce and a meatball. Serve with the pineapple salad
