Prepare meatballs. Place ground beef, egg, garlic, pureed onion, salt, Tianjin red pepper, black pepper, cumin, soy sauce, rice wine/xiaoxing wine, and sugar into a large mixing bowl. Use hands to mix together all ingredients gently. Once all ingredients are just incorporated, place in the refrigerator 4 hours-overnight.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Begin forming meat mixture into meatballs 1-2 inches in diameter.
Place meatballs onto an oiled baking tray, allowing some space between each meatball. Bake for 15 minutes.
15 minutes into cooking, take the tray out of the oven. Pour all juices released onto the tray into a bowl. Flip meatballs upside down to allow the other side to brown. Place meatballs back into the oven to cook for another 5 minutes.
Mix honey and sambal red chili sauce. Use this to glaze meatballs and allow them to roast in the oven for another 5 minutes to brown.
Remove from the oven and serve with steamed Jasmine rice.
