Onion-filled meatballs

The secret to its fluffy texture is the use of yam and no potato starch. While potato starch makes it easier to hold together, it coats the entire mixture, eliminating the fluffy texture when you put it in your mouth.
When dropping the mixture into the pot with a spoon, wetting the spoon before use will prevent the mixture from sticking.
