Ingredients
- 1 small daikon cut into 2" pieces
- water for boiling the daikon
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 medium shallots minced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 heaped tsp sa cha sauce (Chinese BBQ sauce)
- 1 ½ C water or vegetable broth plus more if needed
- 2 small cubes (½ block, 50g) Japanese curry
- 250 g Fish balls frozen or fresh

Instructions

- Transfer the daikon to a bowl and drain the water.
- Return the pot to the stove and bring to medium-high heat.

- Add in the minced shallot and garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
- Next, add in the turmeric and sa cha sauce (Chinese BBQ sauce) and fry for another minute.
- Pour in the water and scrape off the brown bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Add in the daikon and 50g (½ block) of Japanese curry roux and give it a stir to dissolve the curry.
- Place the lid on and bring to a simmer.
- Add in the frozen fish balls, along with 1-2 pieces of bay leaf.
- Give everything a stir and cover with the lid.
- Let the mixture come to a boil and then lower the heat to simmer for about 10 minutes, until the fish balls are cooked through, stirring intermittently.
- Serve piping hot.
- Note: if the curry appears thick, add a little water to thin it out.
