Wealthful fish rolls every year
Overview
[Fish] is an indispensable ingredient in New Year’s Eve dinner, which means there is more than enough every year. On the eve of the New Year, my family will definitely buy a piece of sea fish and put it in the refrigerator, and the meat of sea fish is delicious. This is also related to the fact that I have eaten sea fish since I was a child, so I usually buy sea fish. The Hakka people like to have big pots and big bowls for their New Year’s Eve dinner, and the Hakka people are very hospitable. In the village, they will invite friends over to eat together. The elderly say that this way of eating makes it lively. [Fugui Fish Roll] Use bean curd wrap to wrap the fish and fry it in a pot. The fried fish roll is very crispy; the fish tastes particularly strong. The most important thing in the production process is to mix the fish and minced meat evenly, but also to shake the fish into the basin vigorously; this way the fish will taste better. Elderly people say that delicious food is complicated to make, just like Hakka Yong Tau Foo; these are traditional Hakka dishes, which I learned from when I was a child watching my grandma cook. Whenever I cook some traditional dishes, I think of my grandma, because she is no longer here; fortunately, I have learned her cooking skills.
