Recipe View Serve the baked meatballs immediately alongside the prepared dipping sauce. Provide toothpicks for easy dipping and enjoying. Garnish with extra cilantro, if desired.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the meatball mixture.
If you don’t have fresh ginger, you can substitute with ½ teaspoon of ground ginger in the sauce.
The dipping sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. Gently reheat before serving.
To make ahead, prepare the meatballs and store them covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking.
