How To Make Chinese Style Beef Meatballs - Lion’s Head Meatballs - Marion's Kitchen

[@lenpasek9133]

Marion, I can't stop watching your videos. I love every one of them. I love your mom's Mama Noi's too! Thank you so much for sharing your techniques. It's all about techniques. It is pure joy watching your shows. I'm going out now to purchase some Chinese cooking wine you always talk about.

[@miillzzhere3476]

Wow.. I think this is one of the rare times I’ve seen Marion go at her meat with her hand. I love that 🤩🤩🤩 I’ve always believed that working your food with your hands instead of cutlery tends to give it a rather unique flavor 😝😝😝 love your recipes Marion!!!!!

[@t.cobbseats8765]

Wow Marion, tremendous video with so much valuable information! Thank you for sharing your expertise, and have a good one!

[@KKHsu331]

Marion, I made your meatballs today, with all beef, Bc that’s all I had on hand and they still turn out amazing. So soft and juicy. Thanks again for recipe.

[@TheAmberDTaylor]

Hey Marion. I’m not a huge fan of meatballs, but Chinese meatballs peaked my interest. I’ve noticed your use of cornstarch. That’s really explains the silky texture of certain dishes. Looks yum!😋

[@Marionskitchen]

Amber Taylor-Greenhouse Thank you for watching Amber! Yes the cornstarch is the secret!

[@celienepaul5378]

@@Marionskitchen these look tempting 😋. The recipe doesn't state amount of cornflour needed. Could you pls clarify?

[@thahayasin6326]

Meatball lover here 🙌 thank you ma'am for the tips and tricks! 😄💗 As always, love the videos!

[@tinlinnko3233]

Hello Marion, just wondering if you have ever tried Burmese foods? Burmese food is so under appreciated and would love to see your version of them, since Myanmar is literally next to Thailand and you probably would be familiar with it

[@Marionskitchen]

Great to know you'd be interested in some Burmese dishes! I'll see what I can do! :-)

[@stevenstrange4340]

I am a Burmese and i konw care about it

[@nandarnwe8403]

Yes Marion Pls..really looking forward to see your version of our Burmese food.

[@cpp8227]

I love the aluminum foil ring use for steaming! Will definitely use!

[@Ninakoklahombi]

That looks amazing! I can't wait to try them. I am also thinking of rice and some delicate veggies with that broth poured over the lot.

[@robylove9190]

Thanks for this delicious meatball recipe Marion. I usually don't care for meatballs but, that is because I don't care for Italian food. These actually sound really tasty.

[@jx9936]

In Chinese this is call 狮子头，definitely a staple dish in huge banquets. Thanks for showing the recipe Queen Marion, very appreciate it!

[@yanjijay6752]

😋🤤 I made your dumpling soup it was so so good thnx & love your recipe.

[@Marionskitchen]

Yanji Yang Awesome! Happy you liked it!

[@alicebell]

I saw these made with Chinese cabbage nestled between meatballs, so it looks like lion’s mane, which is where the name comes from.

[@lj-zk5eb]

Thanks Marion!

[@syslibrarian]

Wow. Those look amazing!

[@Shaden0040]

The lion's head is the surrounding garnish of blanched bok choi draped around the edge of the plate.

[@nihalanabel]

I made these today. When rolling them into balls if the mixture sticks to your hands and doesn't take shape, apply some oil onto your palms.

[@forget3817]

Are you certain these are "lion's head" meatballs? The ingredients and size lead me to think they're the steamed meatballs commonly served as dim sum. Lion's Head meatballs are more typically made with ground pork, contain water chestnuts, and are the size of tennis balls. They're often steamed on top of cabbage to give them the mane.

[@gnomevoyeur]

I don’t think I’ve ever met a meatball I didn’t like but these look particularly delicious.

[@walterbaer3558]

Love your videos and recipes!

[@chefgh54]

Awesome recipe!

[@eternal_petrichor]

Once again a great recipe! How salty is your beef stock? Should one use less soy sauce if the stock isn't homemade?

[@sharinnadmello816]

Hi Marion. Please share a pork meat ball soup with vegetables

[@mariacosta3028]

even if other people have said it,... great videos ... good recipes, excellent explanations and I love your gestures and your RED LIPSTICK ;)

[@ingekuttlewis5561]

Lion head comes from the Nappa cabbage that is steamed with the meat balls. The cabbage forms the lion's mane.

[@Scorpio7500]

So tiny! Are they lion cubs?? 😹

[@wolfman011000]

Is there more than one type or style of lions head meal balls? Because those are different from what i was taught to make in the cooking classes i took and the ones i enjoyed eating when out which where braised in and aromatic stock not steamed?

[@pamelapayne400]

You could serve these with udon noodles.

[@TyRonKitzeRow]

Hello, love the recipe, I don't see Corn flour in the recipe link, do i still add?

[@MARK111126]

Im sitting here eating crisps,I'm jealous

[@mariacosta3028]

could you use for the kneading the Kitchen aid bread hook? for how long?

[@mariadelatorre886]

I am definitely making these.

[@phamaisaengsaksri2722]

Great menu

[@angelinalow7731]

Interesting! Here, the minced beef often has white in it (fat). In this case, would it be okay to not mix minced pork? And should I use lean or medium minced beef? Love the vid Marion!

[@Marionskitchen]

If you're not using the pork, you definitely want to go with a fatty beef Angelina. Otherwise your meatballs may turn out dry :-)

[@nadanalia3000]

Delicious!!! Thank you

[@finalfan321]

now this i can make !

[@GardenatEden]

i cannot touch a steaming pan. she is a superhuman

[@elvistamayo608]

This is so amazing! gonna try this one later, I hope it turns out great like yours :D

[@castielleong2759]

Nice❤

[@bhjland3280]

Whenever you mention soya, do you then mean light soya sauce or dark?

[@niamtxiv]

yummy.

[@jessharvison5663]

That looks good

[@jessharvison5663]

Do you put the meat balls in the pot before or after

[@irablanco2316]

It’s late night here already, and I made a mistake watching this 😫 You always make me hungry, Marion 💕 I tried to make your Spicy Korean Soup and I swear, that’s the best I’ve had.

[@buddhatbay9041]

Hello, I just came across this video...just wondering....would you say these are like the beef meatballs that one eats at dim sum? thanks

[@fl1431]

the traditional method after you mixed the meat together is to use a pair of chopsticks to stir the meat in one direction ( whether counter or clock wise,.doesnt matter), until the meat has become sticky, silky and smooth. You can add a bit water to help stirring. You shouldnt smash the meat that much as it will make the meat harder and not tender.

[@bounnongkhoukone7234]

I AM LOVE MEAT BALL.😛😝😜😷👏👌👍😎😋😋😋😋

[@benedictbaladad5365]

Chinese dimsum with a thai twist thats wow

[@ma.rossanajasminaquino7346]

This should be good!!! 😋

[@vincentbrousseau7151]

meatball ---> maple

[@sallyzalkhalperin2517]

Can you make ahead and warm and serve next day?

[@donnamcknight4561]

Yum yum yum!!!!!!

[@thihal123]

Also, the reason it’s called Lion’s Head is because of the size: they’re much larger than your regular meatballs and 1 meatball is usually shared with several people. :)

[@vancevehrs5601]

I just made a dish that had that much ginger in it, I was disappointed at how much the ginger overwhelmed the taste. Is their another root like galangal that has a milder flavor. Never had it and want your opinion as to whether it would be worth the cost of $5.99 a bag.

[@daweryasin1352]

Yummm

[@PreetishGangopadhyay]

I guess the lion's head reference came from the fact that the meatballs are steamed settled between cabbage leaves, so when steamed it appears like the mane of a lion

[@misterogers]

Correct. It is also not uncommon for this dish to be served with cabbage.

[@qwertyqwert2772]

🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 Slam those balls

[@ren09rn]

I really wish I was one of those people who can eat anything with coriander and not *die.*

[@Shop2killAlso]

Can you substitute scallions for coriander?

[@Marionskitchen]

Sure! :-)

[@robintumman6812]

aluminium foil idea is brilliant - I live in the south of France and I've been waiting for months for our Asian supermarket in Beziers to get more stock of bamboo steamers. I would never have thought of that. BTW, have you ever thought of telephoning the Police to get them to find who stole your breasts? Whoops, sorry! R.

[@cytwlm]

Chinese used pork meat

[@forget3817]

Agree. I think Marion has made dim sum steamed meatballs, not Lion's Head meatballs.

[@SuperDamny]

Wetting hands before mixing, lol

[@traceeporter5935]

Wow that plate was not hot ??? Omg are you human ??? Lol

[@ray-bf6zj]

are you half chinese? just curious

[@sybolchris2529]

跟中国狮子头毫无关系。就是小肉球

I wish I had a viewer and many subscribers like you with the characteristics of your own tube content. Show me a good live wallpaper. I was inspired by the channel you tube the soul of wind.

[@huggledemon32]

I had always read and thought that they were called lions head meatballs because they were usually braised with cabbage leaves underneath which looked like a lions mane!?🤷🏻‍♀️

[@forget3817]

Agree. Lion's head meatballs are also usually tennis ball size and contain water chestnuts.

[@katymcglasson3573]

⁰p

[@zboom6601]

meatball this is indonesian food not chinese :D

[@littlebev]

Once again, if the skewer is cold, you got raw meat on your lips!

[@rudeboymon3177]

I like the ingredients but meatballs need to be browned to really unlock the flavor.

[@Tikip0p]

What if you don’t eat beef?..😮

[@Suz_408]

This video is awful with it's silly side shot camera work. Pretty sure you don't have an audience. The background music is horrible. Unwatchable.

[@gewe2508]

time to unsubscribe. She is trying too hard, music too loud, too many slomos...this is a COOKING channel, please stop competing for an art award..traditional lionshead comes in broth with cabbage, what is the reason that you call these lionshead???? Could not be further from reality. Suppose it sounds good??? .

[@walterbaer3558]

Love your videos and recipes!

wow, these look amazing!
