These are shaped like the size of golf balls, thus the term. Filipinos love meatballs so this is a recipe I often cook. After braising the meatballs, pour the sweet-flavored Bulgogi sauce and dinner is done. This easy dish is a fusion of Chinese-style meatballs combined with the sweet-savory goodness of a Korean-style Bulgogi sauce. This recipe is so easy to make and such a family favorite that it's on my menu rotation constantly. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/lions-head-meatballs-with-bulgogi-sauce/feed/ 0 88293 https://thequirinokitchen.com/ube-crinkle-cookies/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/ube-crinkle-cookies/#respond Wed, 30 Nov 2022 01:12:38 +0000 https://thequirinokitchen640.e.wpstage.net/?p=83204 Ube Crinkle Cookies are soft, moist, tender, cake-like cookies which are made with a generous portion of the Filipino favorite ube haleya (purple yam jam).
