Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Preparation materials: one medium-sized potato (85g of mashed potatoes for 6 shrimp balls), 18g of mozzarella cheese, six nine-section shrimps.

   

2. 2 Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin slices, boil them in water until they are soft enough to be easily pierced with chopsticks.

   

3. 3 Remove the heads of the shrimp and dig out the shells on the shrimp, leaving the tail and one section of the shrimp body intact.

   

4. 4 Use a toothpick to remove the shrimp thread from the shell.

   

5. 5 Marinate with 1 tablespoon of cooking wine, 1 gram of salt, and a little pepper for 5 minutes.

   

6. 6 Drain the cooked potatoes and crush them with the back of a knife. If you want to pursue the ultimate taste, it is better to squeeze it through a sieve with a spoon.

   

7. 7 The sieved mashed potatoes are very fine. Take 85 grams of mashed potatoes.

   

8. 8 Rinse the marinated shrimp in the water pipe. Cut the tail off from the shell.

   

9. 9 Chop the shrimp into fine pieces.

   

10. 10 Put the shrimp paste and 85 grams of mashed potatoes together, add 1 gram of salt and a little pepper and stir evenly.

    

11. 11 Divide into 19g or 20g portions.

    

12. 12 Flatten the mashed potatoes, add 5 or 6 pieces of mozzarella cheese, and add the shrimp tails. (I found it inconvenient to leave a piece of shrimp shell when eating, so I carefully removed the shrimp shell, leaving only the shrimp tail.)

    

13. 13 Carefully pinch it firm and round.

    

14. 14 Place all the finished shrimp balls in an egg white bowl and dip them evenly into the egg white liquid.

    

15. 15 Roll in the bread crumbs, carefully squeeze the bread crumbs into a firm shape, shape into a round shape, and spread out the shrimp tails.

    

16. 16 All covered.

    

17. 17 Put some oil in the wok, about 200 ml. When heated to 50-60%, use a small slotted spoon to put the shrimp balls into the oil. After the bottom is set, turn the ball and fry it until golden brown and take it out.

    

18. 18 Place all fried shrimp balls on kitchen paper to absorb oil.
