Not all fishballs are created equal, but yours are certainly decorated above the rest! ;)
Love the sprinkling of sesame seeds over the sauce-laden fishballs. Amazing what a little thing would do the overall presentation!
hahhaa…I think I can try this recipe, thanks! There are nothing more than fish balls, sotong balls, prawn balls, meat balls…here in Taiwan. Fresh ones served in restaurants and even hand-made frozen ones in the supermarket.
I will pair these with your stir fried chive buds. :D
looks and sounds delicious!
Oh, a complete menu, what’s a good idea !!! I take all, that’s for sure ;-) Have a nice day, cheers !
MMmmmm. I grew up in the Philippines and left for the US when I was about 6, but I definitely remember fishballs! The fishball man was my favorite – he’d pierce on 5 or 6 of these on a stick and I’d get to dip it into one of the mysterious sauces. Thanks for bringing me waaaay back =)
Oh, yummy! That dish looks mighty scrumptious!
cheers,

how I miss fishballs. I remember when I was in the Philippines. My co-workers and I would sneak out of the office at around 3 pm to go to the fish-ball cart guy who would deep fry this for us and we would eat it off a stick with the sweet and sour sauce dripping from it…yum!
My mouth is salivating already. In fact I always do whenever I visit your blog!
I love fish balls and marvel at their perfection.
You just made me drool..
We have “fresh” ones here. There is a store that makes all the different types. Love to go on weekends or when we have hotpot/shabu-shabu. Yum!

I agree with Kenny, I’ve never seen fish balls look so colorful and delicious. No only do I learn how to cook from you Rasa Malaysia, but I also learn how to salivate! I think your idea of serving these as hors d’oeuvres is a fantastic one!
Yummy. I’m so hungry!
looks so simple yet elegant when plated..and to us, its really fishballs you can get anywhere, what a difference abit of ketchup and chilli makes!
so yummy~
so cute fish balls
Fish Ball is always my long time favorite, will try the recipe.
fried fish balls are used a lot by the Malay roadside peddlars in sticks , that show how versatile they are, but somehow fish ball noodles din really catch on maybe too plain ?
hi raSA,
OMG THOSE FISHBALLS LOOK fantaxtic (oops didnt mean to yell). Yum, yum, yum!!!!
These look lovely!! I haven’t had fish balls for a while – must remember to pick some up the next time I see an Asian grocery store!
these would be perfect for a pot luck i’ve been invited to… simple and easy to make and i bet it tastes great! cant wait to try it out! :)

Hi, U mention u got DoDo fish balls in the US. I live in LA, where can I get DoDo fish balls? I was from Singapore and I really miss the springy fish balls which they do not have it over here, even in asian market like 99 Ranch.
