Ingredients
- 500 grams fish fillet use while still cold or a bit frozen
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic
- 2 teaspoon salt - more or less
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon white ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon oil
- ½ cup flour
- ½ cup Potato Starch or tapioca or cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 large egg white
- ½ cup ice cold water
- oil for deep frying
Instructions
- Cut fish fillet into small pieces and place in a food processor or blender.
- Add onion powder, garlic powder, salt, sugar, ground pepper, oil, flour, starch, baking powder and egg white.
- Pulse for a couple of minutes gradually adding the ice water in between until it get a homogeneous texture. About 2-3 minutes depending on speed of processor. Transfer content to a bowl.
- Prepare a large bowl of lukewarm water (40°C).
- Shaping. Lightly grease one hand with oil. Then scoop a fistful of mixture. Create a small round opening with your thumb and index finger. Then gently squeeze the mixture to push it up and out through the opening to make a small ball. Using a spoon, scoop the ball and transfer it to the lukewarm water. Do this to the rest of the mixture.
- Fill a large pot with enough water and bring it to a very gentle simmer. Scoop the balls using a strainer and transfer them in the hot water. Do not let the water into a rolling boil or it might break the fish balls. Cook for 20 minutes then remove the balls using a strainer and transfer them in a colander to drain excess water.
- Let them cool down and store in ziplocks to freeze or you can fry them and serve with fish ball sauce.
