Servings

4 servings

Ingredients

8 oz filet of white fish flounder, sole, monkfish all work
one tablespoon minced ginger
one teaspoon minced lemon grass
one scallion chopped
handful of fresh cilantro
juice of one one lime
one egg
one small chili chopped
vegatable oil for frying
dash of fish sauce
salt to taste

Directions

Combine all the ingredients minus the vegetable oil in a food processor and blitz until a little coarse.

If you want to test the seasoning take a small dollop of the fish paste and quickly saute in a pan and check for seasoning.

In a pot fill at least 2 inches of vegetable oil and heat to 350 degrees. (you can also shallow fry these in a pan about 2 min each side) and using a tablespoon drop a dollop of the fish paste into the oil and fry for about 3-5 min rolling them around often. When a little golden brown take out and drain on a paper towel.

Serve with lime wedge and your favorite sweet chili sauce
