For the meatballs: In a bowl, combine ground pork, 3 tbsp uncooked rice, finely chopped onion, egg, savory, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Form into small, 1-inch meatballs. Roll lightly in flour and set aside.
💡 专业技巧: Cook the remaining 3 tbsp rice separately with 1/4 cup water until water is absorbed. Rinse with cold water and cool before adding to the meat mixture if you prefer a firmer meatball. - 2
