Tablespoon Sesame oil  
Quart Beef stock  
/4 Cup Chopped green onions  
Teaspoon Nuoc cham  
Cut the meat into 1−inch cubes. Place in a large mixing bowl. In a small  
mixing bowl, combine the fish sauce, water, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder  
and sesame oil. Season with black pepper. Whisk well and add the beef. Toss  
well. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove from the refrigerator and  
place in the bowl of a food processor, fitted with a metal blade. Process  
until smooth. To test, bring a small pot of water to a boil, add a teaspoon  
of the mixture to the water and cook for about 1 minute. Remove from the  
water, taste and adjust seasoning. Roll the rest of the mixture into  
individual balls, about 1 tablespoon for each ball.  
In a saucepan, bring the beef stock to a boil. Add the meat balls, stirring  
occasionally. When the meat balls start to float, cook for an additional 5  
minutes. Stir in the green onions, nuoc cham and black pepper. Ladle into  
individual bowls and serve.
