Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- To a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cup (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- To the boiling water, stir in rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To a medium bowl, add pork, panko, half the garlic puree and 1 tsp (2 tsp) Moo Shu Spice Blend. Season with 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) pepper, then combine.
- Roll mixture into 8 (16) equal-sized meatballs.
- On the prepared baking sheet, arrange meatballs.
- Bake in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, until golden and cooked through.**
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over low.
- When hot, add half the sesame oil, remaining garlic puree, half the chili flakes (use all for 4 servings) and peanuts.
- Cook for 1-2 min, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Remove from heat.
- Add 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) soy sauce, then stir to combine.

- Meanwhile, thinly slice green onion.
- Cut bok choy into 1-inch pieces. (TIP: Rinse bok choy leaves to wash away any hidden dirt!)
- Reheat the same pan to medium-high.
- When hot, add remaining sesame oil and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) Moo Shu Spice Blend, then the bok choy, carrots and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) water. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until tender-crisp.
- Remove from heat, then season with salt and pepper.
- To a large bowl, add hoisin, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water and remaining soy sauce. Stir to combine.
