Sesame Piggy Bumps W/Apricot Sauce

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I asked our Food Community for a recipe/s using home made ground pork. Thank you for directing me to Sesame Piggy Bumps W/Apricot Sauce. Those "Piggy Bumps" are awesome! The only change I made for the meat balls was to use two cloves of fresh garlic, minced & added ground pepper to our taste. I did bake them on a rack in the pan. (Unwanted grease dripped down) Mine were done in 20 to 23 min. Great taste & texture (Not dry-Not falling apart. - Just Right!) I didn't have veggies for stir fry when I made them and couldn't do the sauce. After DH & I tasted some of them, I froze the rest. -- Since then, I have used some of the Piggy Bumps as an appetizer (which was loved by my company) and tonight used some with Stir Fry with your Apricot Sauce. Wow! Delish... Another keeper. Thank you, thank you.
