DRAIN AND CHOP WATER CHESTNUTS. CHOP GREEN ONIONS, TOPS AND ALL. MIX BOTH WITH MEAT. ADD SOY SAUCE, EGGS, SALT, AND BREAD CRUMBS. MIX THOROUGHLY WITH
YOUR HANDS. CHILL. FORM INTO BALLS, USING A ROUNDED TEASPOON FOR EACH. ROLL LIGHTLY IN CORNSTARCH. FRY IN DEEP FAT AT 370º ( I USE MY ELECTRIC SKILLET) UNTIL WELL BROWNED.

TO MAKE SAUCE, HEAT TOGETHER VINEGAR, PINEAPPLE JUICE, SUGAR, CONSOMMÉ, SOY SAUCE AND GINGER. MIX CORN STARCH WITH WATER AND ADD, GRADUALLY STIRRING UNTIL CLEAR AND THICKENED. KEEP MEAT BALLS HOT IN CHAFING DISH OR CROCKPOT WITH JUST ENOUGH SAUCE TO FORM A SLIGHT GLAZE.
