Yakitori Chicken Meat Balls

I am sure I have mentioned that on friday evening I make some special snacks, when my daughter and hubby comes home after 21:30 pm after their rehersals in the local youth orchestra, were my daughter plays violin and hubby conducts the orchestra.

So this is what i made last week .

I had seen this in Rasamalaysia, I am a regular visitor to her place for the recipes and the beautiful pictures she takes from the food she prepares.
These Yakitories were so delicious that my hubby asked me if I would make it for his b'day dinner as a starter which is by the end of the month. And he was in such a praise for the sauce it was shocking.
It could be also normally when i make some asian snack i just sreve with ketchup or sweet and sour sauce and this sauce was totally different.
I would say the sauce did make a huge impact on the balls iteself.

If you want to make these super yumm Grilled Chicken meat balls, you can find the recipe here.
I have to say I did indianized a bit by adding 3 spring onions, few chilles, giner and garlic. And i bought a small chicken and used the legs, thighs, and the breast to make the meat balls.
