5 Mistakes People Make When Making Hong Kong Fish Balls
There are many different ways to make fish balls, but the traditional Hong Kong version is particularly popular. However, there are a few mistakes that people often make when trying to recreate this dish.
Not using enough fish
The first mistake is not using enough fish. The Hong Kong version of fish balls is made with a mixture of white fish and shrimp, so it’s important to use a good ratio of both ingredients. If too much shrimp is used, the balls will be too dense and difficult to eat.
Over-mixing the ingredients
Another common mistake is over-mixing the ingredients. This can result in tough fish balls that don’t have the desired texture. Mixing should be done until just combined – any more and the ingredients will start to break down.
Adding too much water
Adding too much water can also be a problem. If the mixture is too wet, the fish balls will be difficult to cook properly and they may fall apart when frying. It’s important to add just enough water so that the ingredients can be formed into balls, but not so much that they’re overly wet.
Overcooking
Another issue that can occur is overcooking the fish balls. This will make them dry and chewy, instead of juicy and tender. They should be cooked until they are golden brown and just cooked through – any longer and they will be tough.
Not using a proper pan
Finally, it’s important to use a good quality pan when cooking the fish balls. A non-stick pan is best, as it will prevent them from sticking and make flipping them much easier. If possible, use a wok – this will help to evenly cook the balls and give them a nice crispy exterior.
