    Instructions
    
                - In a large pan, heat the vegetable oil; add the meatballs and cook just until lightly browned on all sides, and then add half of the vegetable broth, cover and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.
 - In a separate pan, melt the buttery spread; blend in the flour, salt and ginger and cook until bubbly; add the other half of the vegetable broth and cook, stirring until thickened.
 - Add the soy sauce and sesame seeds to the broth mixture; combine with the sour cream and stir until smooth.
 - Transfer the meatballs to a chafing dish or crock pot and spoon the sauce over the meatballs; sprinkle with additional sesame seeds.
