Ingredients
- 1 lb Shrimp
- 1 1/2 Tbsp. Leaf lard
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Water
- 1 x Egg white
- 1 Tbsp. Flour Oil for deep-frying
Directions
- 1. Shell and devein shrimp; then mince with unrendered leaf lard. Knead together in a mixing bowl.
- 2. Dissolve salt in water and add in, along with egg white and flour. Stir mix by hand in one direction 15 to 20 min.
- 3. Pick up mix and toss vigorously back into bowl. Repeat several times. (The mix will now be whitish.)
- 4. Continue stirring and tossing till mix is quite stiff and pinkish.
- (Squeeze a small amount of the mix into a bowl of cool water. If it holds its shape well and is not sticky, it's ready.)
- 5. Meanwhile heat oil. Place some shrimp mix in the palm of the hand; then make a fist and squeeze mix through the hollow between thumb and index finger, shaping it into as round a ball as possible. Drop shrimp balls carefully into warm oil.
- 6. Deep-fry a few at a time, as in "Basic Deep-fried Shrimp Balls". Then drain on paper toweling and serve.
