Purple sweet potato and shrimp meatballs

Overview

In addition to the nutrients of ordinary sweet potatoes, purple sweet potatoes are also rich in selenium and anthocyanins, which have special health care functions. Purple sweet potatoes are high in cellulose, which can improve the digestive tract environment and prevent the occurrence of gastrointestinal diseases. Shrimp is rich in protein and low in fat, has high nutritional value, is easy to digest, has no fishy smell and bone spurs, and is rich in minerals (such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, etc.). People have fewer outdoor activities in winter, so it is best for the elderly and children to eat purple sweet potato and shrimp balls that are easily digestible and nutritious. The raw materials are paired with water chestnuts, which clear away heat, purge fire, moisten the lungs and cool the liver, and have a crisp texture, which enriches the taste of the meatballs.
