Korean BBQ meatballs with a fiery, tangy dipping sauce

Korean BBQ meatballs are a delicious twist on traditional meatballs, blending tender minced meat with the bold, umami-rich flavours of Korean BBQ sauce. Glazed in a sweet and savoury soy-based mixture and baked to golden perfection, they’re incredibly moreish and full of depth. Paired with a spicy dipping sauce made with gochujang (Korean chilli paste), these meatballs deliver an irresistible balance of heat, sweetness and tang. Whether served as a party appetiser, side dish, or main meal with rice and salad, this recipe brings a burst of Korean street food flair to your kitchen.
