[Sichuan Special New Year Dishes] Radish Meatballs

Overview

This [radish meatball] recipe was learned in Dazhou, Sichuan. It is a dish that every household will cook during the holidays. Its popularity is similar to the [incense bowl] in our hometown, and its shape is actually quite similar. It’s just that the [Incense Bowl] is more delicate and the method is relatively complicated. [Carrot Meatballs] Although it seems more civilian, I think it is healthier. Because radish is added to [radish meatballs]~ I also eat white radish when eating meat, which helps digestion~O(∩_∩)O~ I have been making this dish for many years, but I have just sorted it out now~~~~~When I was sorting out the photos, I realized that the step pictures are really old O(∩_∩)O~~And they were taken at night~~~But the step pictures are still very detailed, so everyone can take a look~~~
