For most Asian countries, fish ball is a very common ingredient that can be found in everyday cooking. In Malaysia, fish balls are mostly used as toppings to noodle-based or soup-based dishes (noodle soup, fried noodles) and also served in soups. Fish balls are very versatile and I often keep a packet or two of frozen fish balls in my fridge. I love cooking fish balls dishes such as curry fish balls, braised fishballs with bean curd and daikon in claypot, and sweet and sour fish balls featured above.
Sweet and sour fish balls are very easy to make; I prepared mine in less than 15 minutes. It calls for very simple and easy-to-get ingredients. What I love most about the dish is that it can be a main entree that goes very well with steamed rice, but it can also be converted to a little snack–one that you can eat pretty much anytime of the day when you’re hungry. Want something fancier? Sure. Find yourself some toothpicks and suddenly, they transform into some nice Asian-style tapas that would please your crowd at parties…
