SPICY FRIED FISH BALLS

Steps:

• Wash and pat the Cod Fillet (1 pound) and dry with some paper towels. Then cut into chunks and place into a food processor.
• Give the fish a few pulses in the food processor and remember to scrape down the side so you get an even consistency.
• Add the Parmesan Cheese (3/4 cup), Fresh Parsley (1 tablespoon), Fresh Thyme (1 tablespoon), Garlic (2 clove), Egg (2), Panko Breadcrumbs (3/4 cup), Salt (1/4 teaspoon), Ground Black Pepper (1/4 teaspoon), and Scotch Bonnet Pepper (1/2).
• Pulse for a minute or two and remember to stop to scrape down, until you have a well mixed consistency.
• Shape this into the small balls for frying. Take about a tablespoon's worth of filling and roll in your hands to form the ball.
• Roll balls in All-Purpose Flour (1/2 cup) and coat evenly.
• Heat the Vegetable Oil (as needed) over medium-high heat and fry balls for 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

SPICY FRIED FISH BALLS

Steps:

• To make fish balls, pound shallots, chilies, lime leaves, turmeric, lemon grass, ground coriander and pepper to a paste in a mortar and pestle, or use a food processor. Transfer to bowl.
• In food processor, blend cod and mackerel to a smooth paste. Add eggs. Gradually pulse in aromatics and coconut milk, alternating ingredients, until incorporated. Pulse in rice flour until you can form paste into a ball.
• To make sauce, whisk remaining ingredients, other than oil and panko, in a bowl.
• In a saucepan or wok, heat 3 inches oil to 375 degrees. Meanwhile, grind panko in a food processor or mortar and pestle. Using wet hands, roll fish paste into 2-inch balls. Dip balls into panko and coat evenly. Fry, turning frequently, until golden brown all over, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate. Serve with dipping sauce.

SPICY FISH BALLS. RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• Wash and pat the fish dry with some paper towels. If you're using frozen (pre packaged) cod, give it a good squeeze as there's usually a lot of water in it. Then cut into chunks and place into a food processor. The entire recipe will be done in the food processor, but if you don't have one, don't fret. Simply chop the cod fish very fine and mix all the ingredients in a large bowl. Give the fish a few pulses in the food processor and remember to scrape down the side so you get an even consistency. Then add all the other ingredients except the flour and the veg oil for frying. Please remember to chop the herbs very fine and crush the garlic. The scotch bonnet pepper should also be very fine and do remember to wear gloves when handling them. Additionally, wash your hands with soap and water immediately after handing. Pulse for a minute or two (remember to stop to scrape down), until you have a well mixed consistency. Now it's time to shape this into the small balls for frying. Take about a teaspoon full amount and roll in your hands to form the ball. Then toss in the flour (all purpose flour) to evenly coat the outside. This will help you get that lovely golden brown colour when fried. Be sure to do them all before you start to fry, as they will cook very fast. You can place them on a parchment lined cookie sheet so they don't stick as they await their turn in the hot oil Heat your oil on a medium/high heat and fry these for 3-4 minutes. I love using my wok for this as it maintains an even heat and with the high sides, I don't make a mess on the stove. Drain on paper towels and serve with one of the many sauces I've shared over the past few years. Check the recipe index for the tamarind sauce, there's the honey mustard mango sauce, the shado beni sauce and about 8 other spicy sauces there.
