Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare ingredients: shrimp: 10 pieces, remove shrimp heads and sand lines. Peel off the shrimp skin, leaving only the tail part. Wash thoroughly and set aside.

   

2. 2 Prepare ingredients: eggs: 1-2, bread crumbs (or steamed bun residue): appropriate amount, salt: appropriate amount, white pepper: appropriate amount, cooking oil: appropriate amount.

   

3. 3 Prepare ingredients: potatoes: 500g. Peel and slice potatoes and steam for 20 minutes until cooked.

   

4. 4 Crush the steamed potatoes into puree, add an appropriate amount of salt, stir evenly to infuse the flavor, and set aside.

   

5. 5 Add appropriate amount of salt and pepper to the shrimp to taste and set aside.

   

6. 6 Cook the marinated shrimp. Put the pot under boiling water. When the color of the shrimp turns red and becomes rolled, take it out and keep the water aside.

   

7. 7 Take a portion of the mashed potatoes and press it into a patty, and place the shrimp in the middle.

   

8. 8 Wrap the mashed potatoes around the shrimp in a ball shape, with the small tails of the shrimp exposed.

   

9. 9 Coat with egg wash.

   

10. 10 Place the shrimp balls in the bread crumbs and evenly coat them with bread crumbs. After wrapping, press lightly a few times to make the bread crumbs stick firmly on the shrimp balls. I used steamed bread crumbs instead of bread crumbs. I have made a comparison and found that using steamed bread crumbs is definitely better than bread crumbs. In terms of taste, shrimp balls fried from steamed bun residue are more fragrant. There is sugar in the bread crumbs, which will easily burn and turn black when exposed to oil. If you fry it for a while, you will find that the finished product is not so golden, and the oil is very dirty. You might as well try this tip.

    

11. 11 Wrap all the shrimp balls.

    

12. 12 Preheat the oil until it is about 50% hot and add the shrimp balls. Always keep the heat low to medium, fry until light yellow and take it out. Drain the oil on kitchen paper for a while and then place on a plate. Can be eaten with tomato sauce.

    

13. 13 The crispy shell, soft potatoes, and bouncy shrimps have three layers of texture in one bite, and the content is very rich.

    

14. 14 Paired with tomato sauce, it’s great~

16. 16 Both appearance and taste are indispensable.
