Step to make Chinese Lionhead Meatballs:

1. Mix the meatball ingredient It may be a bit runny if so add a little more panko breadcrumb If to hard add a little
2. Heat the oil. Form the meatballs and fry the meatballs in the oil. The meatballs will be just sticky but firm enough to form. Get the water boiling in the steamer so it will be ready to steam. Get a good crust on the outside of the meatball No need to get the meatballs done, that will happen when you steam it.
3. Wash the bok-choy very carefully separate the stalks/rib
4. If you are using baby bok-choy just trim the end If using bigger bok-choy cut the big parts of the stalks into small portion Coat the bok-choy with sesame seed oil, soya sauce, and salt. Let sit and marinate for 10 minute Steam the bok-choy with the fried meatballs for 30-40 minute

7. Add oil to pot and sauté the rice. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and splash of sesame seed oil. The water should still be hot.
8. Measure out 2 cups and add to the sauteeing rice. Bring to a boil and simmer. Add the rest of the soya sauce.

It is different because the pork meatballs are stewed in a braising liquid, instead of the conventional method like boiling or baking. Chinese pork meatballs are also called lions head (狮子头, shi zi tou). They feature tender, moist, and light meatballs with a savory taste. This dish is a staple food for my family, because its quite easy to cook in big batches and is so comforting to enjoy any time. Arrange sliced cabbage on the bottom of a large soup pot or Dutch oven.
