【Tianjin】Fried cod meatballs

Overview

Cod meat is delicious and nutritious. The protein in the meat is higher than that of salmon, pomfret, anchovy, and hairtail, while the fat contained in the meat is only 0.5% like shark, which is 17 times lower than salmon and 7 times lower than hairtail. The liver is high in oil. In addition to being rich in DHA and DPA that are common in ordinary fish oil, it also contains vitamins A, D, E and other vitamins necessary for the human body. The proportion of these nutrients in cod liver oil is the optimal proportion required by the human body every day. Therefore, Nordic people call it the nutritionist on the table. I made fried and grilled cod last time and it was delicious. Today I want to try another way of eating it. Suddenly I remembered that I had eaten a snack called hand-baked cod balls in a restaurant. There were three cod balls on each bamboo stick, and lemon sauce was poured on top.
