These glazed meatballs hit that perfect sweet-savory note that makes a dish genuinely hard to stop eating. The sauce builds on 100% grape juice, coconut aminos, honey, and a double hit of fresh ginger ā it reduces into something glossy and deeply flavorful that clings to every meatball. Cassava flour stands in as the binder here, doing the job quietly without any of the legume-based flours that can sneak into meatball recipes and cause problems for people avoiding lupin. The meatballs go into a hot oven first, so they develop real color and structure before they ever touch the sauce, which means they hold together beautifully during that final simmer. Arrowroot starch thickens the glaze to a silky, spoon-coating consistency ā no cornstarch, no wheat, just clean ingredients that work. Serve them over rice or with toothpicks as an appetizer and watch them disappear fast.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, cassava flour, garlic, 1 tsp grated ginger, turmeric, and salt. Mix with your hands until just combined ā stop as soon as the ingredients are evenly distributed to keep the meatballs tender.
