Step 1
Shape ground pork into 12 golf-ball-sized meatballs using your hands. Work quickly; don't overpack.
Step 2
Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high. When it shimmers, add meatballs and don't stir for 2 minutes.
Step 3
Roll meatballs around until all sides are golden and cooked through, another 4–5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
Step 4
In the same skillet, whisk lime juice, fish sauce, and chili paste. Stir 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5
Return meatballs to the pan. Toss gently to coat in the dressing for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
Step 6
Scatter cilantro and green onion on top. Serve hot with jasmine rice or as a starter with cucumber slices.
