These meatballs are made with minced meat and mint leaves [the waxy specie]. I don't know what is the specific name for this kind of mint leaves but I know there are some medicinal value. It is remedy for cough. Anyone who knows the name of this mint, please let me know. In Hokkien, it's called Ang Mo Poh Hoe.
Updates [14/8/14] - from Yal "My Indian and filipino colleagues call the leaves oregano. Filipino squeeze out the juice and add kasturi juice for cough whereas Indians soften it first with a heated metal spoon before squeezing it".
