Instruction
Preheat the oven to 356ºF.
In a large bowl combine the pork meat, chopped garlic, fish sauce, a pinch of brown sugar, salt and pepper, vinegar, soy sauce and the ginger, until you get a smooth paste. Add the chopped chives and mix gently.
Put flour in your hands and with a pinch of flour, make some balls with the 2 tablespoon of pork per ball. Chill the meatballs in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Preheat a pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and brown the meatballs on all sides.
Now place the meatballs on a oven dish and bake for another 8 to 10 minutes in the oven.
Serve the cooked meatballs in fresh lettuce leaves wrapped with some mint and cilantro inside. Serve them with additional soy sauce.
