    250g fish balls (round, about 1 - 2 cm in diameter)

Additional Ingredients

  • ·
    30g onion (diced)
  • ·
    30g garlic (minced)
  • ·
    50g curry block
  • ·
    50ml milk

    50g diced red bell pepper (for decoration)
  • ·
    Appropriate amount of chopped green onions (for decoration)

Seasonings

  • ·
    3g salt
  • ·
    10ml cooking oil
  • ·
    A little cornstarch slurry

DIRECTIONS

Step 1

Dice the onion and mince the garlic, then set them aside (these two are the key ingredients for stir - frying to bring out the aroma).

Step 2

Pour about half a pot of water into the pot. After the water boils, add 250g of fish balls. First, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and cook for 10 minutes. Remove and drain the water.

Step 3

After the fish balls are cooked, heat 10ml of oil in the pot. When the oil is slightly smoking, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Stir - fry over high heat until fragrant.

Step 4

Add 50g of curry block and quickly stir - fry until the curry is well combined with the garlic and onion, emitting a strong aroma.

Step 5

Add the cooked fish balls and stir evenly to coat each fish ball with the curry.

Step 6

Add 200ml of water. After bringing to a boil, turn to low heat and cook for 5 minutes to allow the curry flavor to penetrate into the fish balls.

Step 7

Season with 3g of salt, then pour in 50ml of milk. The combination of the curry aroma and milk flavor enhances the taste.

Step 8

Add a little cornstarch slurry and simmer while thickening the sauce until it coats the sides of the pot.

Step 9

After plating, sprinkle with diced red bell pepper and chopped green onions for decoration. It looks extremely appealing!
