Mix the meatball ingredients together and roll into meatballs. Place the meatballs in the steaming section. Let them cook in the steam for 20 minutes. In the meanwhile, prepare the rice and the sauce.
Combine the sauce ingredients in a saucepan, bring to boil and leave for 5 minutes.
Roll the cooked meatballs in the sauce and place on a rice bed. Garnish with nuts, spring onions and fresh ginger. Pour the rest of the sauce on top.
Did you know that meatballs can also be steamed? Steaming preserves the juiciness of the meatballs and no extra fat is needed for cooking. These steamed meatballs with teriyaki sauce can be served as a meal with rice or as a finger food snack on a buffet table.
