Comment préparer Vietnamese Turkey Meatballs And Noodles
- **Make the Caramelized Sugar Syrup:** In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup granulated sugar with 5 tablespoons water. Cook over medium-high heat, swirling occasionally, for 2-3 minutes, or until the sugar dissolves and a light amber syrup forms. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- **Prepare the Turkey Meatball Mixture:** In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground turkey, 1/4 cup chopped green onions, 3 tablespoons fish sauce, the cooled sugar syrup, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- **Marinate the Meatballs:** Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
- **Prepare the Dipping Sauce:** In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons fish sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 2 tablespoons water, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1-2 finely minced serrano peppers (adjust to your spice preference). Set aside.
- **Broil the Meatballs:** Preheat your broiler. Shape the marinated turkey mixture into 12 meatballs. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Broil for 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and slightly browned.
- **Assemble the Bowls:** Divide the dipping sauce among four bowls. Top each bowl with 3 meatballs.
- **Add Noodles and Garnishes:** Serve immediately with cooked rice noodles (about 8 oz) and your favorite fresh greens, such as lettuce and cilantro.
