Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Crispy Shrimp Balls Recipe
- Prepare the shrimp by peeling and deveining if necessary, then chop finely in a food processor until chunky.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped shrimp, breadcrumbs, egg, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and season with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
- Form small portions of the mixture into compact balls about the size of a golf ball and place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F. Test with a small shrimp ball; it should sizzle upon contact.
- Fry the shrimp balls in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Turn gently to ensure even cooking.
- Remove the fried shrimp balls with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
