Tip
These are so juicy and tasty. Ths Sambal Olek on the dipping sauce is really only for colour. If you prefer a hot sauce, increase amount of Sambal Olek.
You can use chicken mince in lieu of Pork mince.

Was easy and tasty. I served with rice and drizzled the dipping sauce over. Would add coriander to the meatballs next time. Thank you!
They are so yummy thank you for sharing
Delicious! Great for party nibbles, but even better added into an Asian style salad. These always go down well.

Pretty good, but a bit bland for Vietnamese food lovers! Probably won't make again
Delicious!
So yummy!! I've taken this as nibbles to a few parties now & they always go down a treat. If there's any leftover, it gets turned into a salad with the dipping sauce as a dressing. Very tasty.
so delicious

Sensational - I steamed some as per the recipe but also wrapped in wonton pastry & steamed these too. They were delicious both ways.
Heat 500g Water 7 mins/varoma/spd 1. Do this whilst you are rolling the meatballs.

Could you clarify your comment - do you first have to preheat the water in the thermomix before adding the porkballs in the Varoma or whether you mean the total time for both preheating the water and cooking is 15minutes.
