These Thai Sticky Meatballs are so good that you will want to make them over and over again. It has a perfect balance of flavors including: sweet, savory & a spicy kick. I always know when I make an outstanding dish and “score points” with the hubby because he will say: “is this healthy” He is implying that it is too tasty to be healthy:-)
