Total Time 35 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 20 minutes

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound ground pork
1 egg
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
¼ teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG)
1 teaspoon salt
2 green onions, chopped and divided
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 head napa cabbage, cored and cut into chunks
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups water, or as needed
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil

Steps:

  • Mix the ground pork, egg, cornstarch, 2 teaspoons of sesame oil, ginger, monosodium glutamate, salt, and half of the chopped green onions together in a bowl. Use your hands to mix until the ingredients are evenly distributed. Set aside.

LION'S HEAD CASSEROLE RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Lion's Head Casserole Recipe - Food.com image

Chinese dish, I call it cabbage and meatball soup at home. You can use boy choy instead of napa cabbage. This is a combination of a few variations to this recipe, and the way we like to eat ours. Serve with steaming hot rice for a complete meal. I like to place this in the crockpot (set-it-and-forget-it) and cook it for the afternoon if possible because the longer you cook this dish the more tender and melt-in-your-mouth the meatballs are.

Total Time 3 hours 30 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 3 hours

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 lb ground lean pork
4 dried shiitake mushrooms, soaked in warm water for at least 10 mins
1 bunch green onion, chopped
1 teaspoon ginger (fresh)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons dried shrimp (optional)
2 -3 lbs napa cabbage, chop to fit in pot
1 egg, lightly beaten
7 ounces firm tofu, diced
4 tablespoons soy sauce, divided
4 teaspoons cooking wine, divided
1/8 teaspoon pepper
5 cups chicken stock
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons brown sugar

Steps:

  • Fill a big pot with chicken stock, add water and bring to low boil and simmer.
  • Add the cabbage.
  • While you get that going, start making the meatballs.
  • Squeeze out excess water from the mushrooms, mince and set aside, make sure to save the soaking water to add flavor to the soup later!
  • Mix the ground pork with the egg, minced mushrooms, oyster sauce, tofu, salt, pepper, ginger, green onions, cornstarch, and 2 Tbs soy sauce, 2 tsp cooking wine, plus minced dried shrimp if using. (make sure you mince it finely before adding).
  • Mix throughly, using a spoon to help, make meatballs and place into pot on top of the cabbage. Add brown sugar and left over 2 Tbs soy sauce to soup. Cover and simmer for 2-3 hours or longer for tender meatballs. Before serving taste and adjust seasonings of soup by adding more salt or soy sauce or pepper.

  • Heat wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates instantly, then pour in remaining peanut oil (enough to measure a scant 1/4 inch in wok). Reduce heat to moderately high and gently arrange meatballs in wok. Fry meatballs, turning gently with tongs or a slotted spoon, until deep golden on all sides, about 5 minutes total (if meatballs stick to wok, add more oil). Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain, then arrange on top of cabbage in pot. Add broth, then cover meatballs completely with reserved 4 cabbage leaves. Bring liquid just to a boil, then reduce heat and gently simmer, covered, 1 hour. (Check occasionally to be sure liquid is not boiling vigorously.) Season broth with salt, then move large cabbage leaves around side of pot to resemble a lion's mane. Serve in individual shallow bowls.

RED BRAISED LION’S HEAD MEATBALLS (HONG ... - ASIAN RECIPES
This ‘red’ version of Lion’s Head Meatballs is stewed in soy sauce and chicken stock which results in a darker coloured dish. The large size of the meatball is said to resemble the head of the lion with the surrounding wombok representing the mane. Meatballs are pan-fried then stewed until they are fully infused with the stock and soy sauce. When served with rice, this Chinese dish evokes the warmest of childhood memories.

  • To Prep Make the potato starch flurry by combining the potato starch and water together and mixing. Set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine the pork and the water together and mix. Add in the ginger, water chestnuts, scallion, rice wine, sesame oil and salt. Stir well to combine and then divide in to 5 large meat balls. To help sear the meatballs, dust them lightly with cornstarch. To Cook In a wok or frying pan, heat up the oil over a high heat. When the wok begins to lightly smoke, add in the meatballs and fry until the meatballs have evenly browned. When the meatballs have browned, remove them from the wok and set them aside. Don't worry about if the meatballs are still uncooked as they will be braised. In a steamer, steam the wombok leaves until the leaves are soft and wilted. Remove them from the steamer and set them aside. In a claypot, place some of the wombok leaves on to the bottom to form a base. Add in the meatballs and pour in the stock, soy sauce and sugar. Cover the meatballs with the remaining wombok leaves and cover with the lid. Set the claypot on to a stove and bring to a boil over a high heat before reducing to a simmer and letting braise for 60-90 mins. To Serve When the dish has finished braising, transfer the meatballs on to a serving plate and garnish with the wombok leaves. Retain the braising liquid and add in the slurry to thicken the broth. Spoon the thickened broth on to the serving plate and garnish with spring onions.
