How to Make Asian Pork Kofte With Sweet Limed Slaw

1. In a large bowl, combine ground pork, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp ginger, 1/2 tsp coriander, 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to taste. Gently mix until just combined.
2. Shape the pork mixture into 1-inch meatballs (kofte).
3. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the kofte on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for another 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
5. While the kofte are cooking, prepare the slaw: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup shredded red cabbage, 1/2 cup shredded carrots, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1/4 cup lime juice, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp honey, and a pinch of salt. Toss gently to combine.
6. Once the kofte are cooked, serve immediately with a generous portion of the sweet lime slaw. For an Asian kebab, serve in warm flatbreads.
