For a richer flavor, use chicken broth instead of water. Add a drizzle of sesame oil before serving for enhanced aroma. The meatballs can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator until ready to cook. Garnish with extra chopped cilantro or thinly sliced scallions for a pop of freshness.
