Glazed Ham-Raisin Balls - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/2 lb ground ham (or put through food processor)
    1/2 lb ground pork (or put through food processor)
    1 cup Raisin Bran cereal (flakes)
    2/3 cup evaporated milk
    1 egg
    1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon pepper
    1/8 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
    1 tablespoon vinegar
    1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    1/4 cup corn syrup
Preparation
    Mix the ground ham, ground pork, raisin bran, milk, egg, onion, salt, pepper and thyme together thoroughly.
    Shape into 8-10 meatballs, using about 1/4 cup mixture for each.
    Place balls in an 8x11x1 1/2-inch baking pan.
    Bake, uncovered, at 350\u00b0F for 30 minutes.
    In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar, syrup, vinegar and mustard; bring to boiling.
    Pour over ham balls and bake 20 minutes more, basting with sauce once or twice during baking.
    Makes 2-3 main course servings.
    If making them as an appetizer, shape meat mixture into 1 to 1 1/2-inch (bite sized) balls, and adjust baking times accordingly.
