Welcome back and today we are going to make some air fryer Asian meatballs.

Put in about 2 tablespoons of garlic.

Add a good tablespoon of ginger paste.

Add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce.

Add about 1/4 of a cup of red onion.

Add about 1/4 of a cup of panko breadcrumbs and mix it all together.

Before mixing the meat, add a good tablespoon and a half of olive oil to the mixture.

Mix everything together, but do not over mix to keep the meat tender.

Form the mixture into meatballs, rolling them to be as close to the same size as possible for even cooking.

Roll each meatball in olive oil to help achieve a crisp texture.

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.

Cook the meatballs in the air fryer at 400°F for 10 minutes, flipping them after 4 minutes.

After 5 minutes, check on the meatballs and continue cooking for another 5 minutes until done.

Dress the meatballs with chili sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Finish with a sprinkle of cilantro.
