I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Add rice to TM bowl and dry roast for 3 minutes on Varoma temperature on speed 1. Then mill rice for 1.5 minutes on speed 9. Set aside.
Mince cubed pork for approx 10 seconds on speed 8 (until fine). Set aside with rice flour.
Add palm sugar, garlic and spring onion to TM bowl and chop for 10 seconds on speed 10.
Combine remaining ingredients in TM bowl and mix for 6 seconds on reverse speed 4. Scrape ingredients out of TM bowl and (with wet hands) roll them into teaspoon size balls. Set aside in fridge for about 30 minutes then thread on wooden skewers – 3 to a skewer and try to squash them to the skewer so they aren’t perfectly round.
Grill or BBQ until nicely browned then serve with peanut sauce. Pork skewers go beautifully with Vietnamese rice paper rolls or Asian style coleslaw (please see my Vietnamese Chicken & Cabbage Salad for an example).
Place palm sugar, garlic and chilli in TM bowl and chop for 10 seconds on speed 10. Scrape down sides. Add oil and sauté for 2 minutes on 100o speed soft.
Add peanuts and chop for 8 seconds on speed 5. Add remaining sauce ingredients then cook for 12 minutes on 100o speed 3.

Tip
Ensure you soak (x 10) skewers in water for at least one hour beforehand (so skewers don’t burn)

Comments
If you're in a hurry, skip the skewers, it makes lovely meatballs. You can then skip the 30 min fridge step. For further speed you can cook them in the air-fryer 190C for 7 mins (they come out beautifully evenly cooked) and cook the peanut sauce at the same time as the meatballs. Other commenters are indeed correct, the sauce is divine and tastes like restaurant quality. This is now a firm family favourite. If you don't have time to make a full salad, it is very nice with chopped up lebanese cucumbers and cherry tomatoes. I want to try it the Cabbage and chicken salad recipe that Elise suggests next time.
Oh wow, these were so good!!!! I didn't bother putting them on skewers and just made meatballs.....
I'm always looking for good pork mince recipes, and I'll definitely be making this again.
And that sauce - sooo delicious, so quick and so easy! Yum!
We loved this sauce. Needed more meat though to fee our family of 4 they loved it so much.
Fab recipe. Turned out so nice. Peanut sauce had heaps of flavour. Easy to do as well. A good use for pork mince.
Fantastic recipe that was tasty enough for all the family. I steamed rice in Thermy and cooked veg in the Varoma while the meatballs were cooking. Thanks for sharing!
Delicious Regards,
Ange
These were yummy. Even my fussy kids gave the meatballs the thumbs up!
I found this recipe tonight & thought I'd give it a go.....OMG.... Simply delicious.
However, I chopped my peanuts for triple the time as I found there were still halved peanuts in my bowl at the end of the first two attempts. After the 3rd time, my sauce came out very much like an authentic Thai peanut sauce still with lots of bits.
This is going to be on our favourites list & a fortnightly meal in our house.
I served this with saute'd cabbage & my hubby loved it.... Thank you....
This was great. I omitted the water and just used a whole can of coconut milk. I also didn't have Tamarind paste so just used some lemon juice and a bit of extra sugar.
Delicious! I didn't have tamarind purée ao replaced with lime juice and brown sugar, but it was still amazing.
Delicious!! Especially with your salad.
I forgot to buy rice - so just toasted 40g of rice flour in the thermie for abouat 4min Varoma Speed 1 - and it took any raw flavour out.
