Korean Meat Patties

I grew up eating a ton of these meat patties A LOT around the holidays. They can be eaten as appetizers or as a side dish along with the meal. No need to worry about making a special dipping sauce for these gems. Just dip them in soy sauce and chow away :o)

Meat patties ingredients

1/2 pound ground beef

1/2 pound ground pork

1 small onion, finely diced

2 tablespoons carrot, finely diced

1 green onion, finely chopped

1 large garlic, finely chopped

12 ounces of firm tofu, squeeze the excess water with your hands

1 egg

Black Pepper

Sesame Seeds

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 tablespoons sesame oil

Egg wash ingredients

4-5 eggs, whisked in a large bowl

Flour

Mix all of the meat patties ingredients together and form into  1 1/2 inch balls. Squish each ball down with your fingers a little bit so they turn into patties.  Dip all of the meat patties in flour so they have a nice layer of flour on all sides. Then dip them in the whisked egg mixture before cooking them on a hot griddle or skillet. Cook each side of the meat patty for about 2 - 3 minutes.
