Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Water chestnuts, a popular ingredient in Asian cooking, add a little crunch to these meatballs. You can find canned water chestnuts in the ethnic foods aisle of most supermarkets.
  • tip 2
    These flavorful meatballs are also great to serve as appetizers. Fill a tall glass with bamboo skewers or a short one with toothpicks and let your guests help themselves.
