As the name suggests, it must be made of fish. But it doesn't taste fishy. It's only fresh and smooth. I remember when I was a kid, my father made two hammers (a kind of knife without a blade, the blade and the back are almost the same thickness, which beat the fish into mud) in the factory. Because of the trouble. So only in the new year's day will do this kind of food. Because eat less. So I think it's very delicious. I've also made it by hand. It's very tiring and troublesome. First of all, remove the fish; then use the hammer to repeatedly beat the meat into fine meat mud; then pour the fish mud into a deep barrel. Add the eggs, raw meal and salt water; finally, use your hands to continuously stir in one direction. Stir and stir until they are fully integrated; use a small bowl to fill half a bowl of water. Make a small ball and put it into the water. The ball can float in the water, which is a success. Now with the meat blender, it's much more convenient. Save the manual work.
Step1:Remove the skin and bones of fresh grass carp (preferably herring). The meat will not be washed.
Step2:After slicing, put it into the meat blender. Add eggs, cornflour, water, salt and mix them into mud.
Step3:Use chopsticks to take some fish paste. Put it into a bowl. The meat paste can float in the water. After pouring into the basin, continue to mix with hands in the same direction for a while.
Step4:After pouring into the basin, continue to mix with hands in the same direction for a while. Then squeeze out the balls by hand. Put them in the warm oil pan.
Step5:The oil pan can't be too hot. The fire can be adjusted to the minimum. Put two-thirds of the oil in the balls, but it's OK.
Step6:Turn up the ignition slightly. The balls will float naturally. It's flat at this time.
Step7:The balls are bigger and bigger. They are more and more round. It's a full pot.
Step8:Deep fry until golden. The balls contract into small, wrinkled balls.
Step9:Put the preserved fish balls and chicken soup or bone into the soup pot at the same time. The pot will not rot for a long time. And the longer the pot lasts, the fuller the balls will be. The more delicate and tender the taste is. Take a bite gently. It is filled with soup.
