Toast sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium heat. It will take about three minutes or so and you will need to stir them all the time so get toasted evenly and don't burn, toss them out onto a plate once they are done.
Add all the meatball ingredients to a bowl and mix well to combine.
Form the mixture into evenly sized meatballs and place them on a sheet pan, bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until they are cooked through.
Mix honey, soy sauce, ketchup, sesame oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes (optional) together in a small pan, add in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and mix well to combine. Heat slowly until sauce heats up and thickens, stirring it all the time.
When the meatballs are cooked, serve them hot with the sticky sauce poured over the top and then sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds.
