Ssamjang Pork Meatballs

Ssamjang Pork Meatballs
Armando Rafael for The New York Times. Food Stylist: Samantha Seneviratne.

Recipe by Samantha Seneviratne | Total time: 30 minutes

Sweet and spicy ssamjang is a Korean sauce, mostly used for grilled dishes. Made with slow-fermented soybean paste, it's salty and pungent and adds quite a bit of flavor, perfect to spruce up some ground pork for a quick, weeknight meatball. You can buy it in the Asian grocery section or make your own. Try these meatballs in a lettuce cup with rice and kimchi or served straight-up with some grilled vegetables.
