Steps:

• 1. MAKE THE MEATBALLS: Preheat the oven to 375?F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray it with nonstick spray. 2. In a medium bowl, mix together the pork, bread crumbs, scallions, egg, garlic, ginger, sriracha, soy sauce, salt and pepper. 3. Form the mixture into 2-inch balls and place onto the baking sheet. 4. Bake until the meatballs are fully cooked, 17 to 20 minutes. 5. MAKE THE SAUCE: While the meatballs cook, heat the sesame oil in a medium pot over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and ginger, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. 6. Add the hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, honey, soy sauce and sriracha; bring the mixture to a simmer. Simmer until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Keep warm over low heat. When the meatballs are finished cooking, add them to the pot and stir until they are well coated in the sauce. 7. MAKE THE NOODLES: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook according to packaging instructions. Drain well. 8. To serve, place the noodles on a serving platter and top with the meatballs. Use a vegetable peeler to peel the carrot lengthwiseinto long strips, then roll them into curls. Garnish the platter with scallions, sesame seeds and carrot curls.
