Categories: Poultry. wi, Breads, Vegetables
     Yield: 8 servings

     1 lb Chicken mince
     2    Spring onions; fine chopped
     1 lg Egg
     2 ts Ginger
     2 tb Bread crumbs
     1 tb Oil; for cooking

MMMMM---------------------------SAUCE--------------------------------
     1 tb Soy sauce
     1 tb Cooking sake
     2 ts Sugar

MMMMM--------------------------OPTIONAL-------------------------------
     3    Perilla / shiso leaves; fine
          - chopped

 In a large mixing bowl, add the chicken mince, spring
 onions, egg, ginger, bread crumbs and optional: shiso
 leaves. Knead with your hands until the mince turns pale
 and smooth and is evenly blended.

 Use a spoon to scoop out a portion of the mixture (1-2
 tb). Dip one hand in water to coat your hand, then
 take the portion of mixture and gently press into a ball
 shape with your fingers. Press the skewer through the
 meatball until it's two thirds of the way down the
 skewer. Smooth out the edges.

 Repeat step 2 to add another 1-2 balls onto the skewer.

 Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over
 medium-high and add the meatball skewers. Cook for 2-3
 minutes on one side until nicely browned, then flip and
 cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan.

 Pour the sauce ingredients (soy sauce, cooking sake and
 sugar or homemade teriyaki sauce) into the pan and bring
 to the boil. Reduce heat to low and return the skewers
 into the pan. Baste the top with sauce. Cook for one
 minute, then flip and baste again.

 Remove from the pan and serve immediately.
