Ingredients
- 1/4 pound of salmon
- 1 large egg
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon tapioca flour
- Salt, to taste
- Ground black pepper, to taste
- Beef bouillon powder, to taste
- 4-5 tablespoons breadcrumbs
Instructions
-
Prepare the Salmon: Begin by cutting the salmon into small pieces or shredding it with a fork. Further break down the salmon using a spoon until it reaches a fine consistency.
-
Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded salmon with the egg, all-purpose flour, and tapioca flour. Stir until well blended.
-
Season the Mixture: Add salt, ground black pepper, and beef bouillon powder to the mixture. Stir again until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Add Breadcrumbs: Gradually incorporate the breadcrumbs into the mixture, ensuring it is well combined and the mixture holds together. The consistency should be such that it can be easily shaped into balls.
-
Shape the Balls: Using two spoons or your hands, form the mixture into small round balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter.
-
Fry the Balls: Heat a small amount of oil in a pan over low heat. Gently place the salmon balls into the pan and cook until they turn a golden brown color, which should take a few minutes. It is important to cook them on low heat to ensure that the outside becomes crispy without burning while the inside cooks through properly.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once the salmon balls are golden brown and cooked through, remove them from the pan and let them drain on a paper towel. Serve warm and enjoy this delicious treat!
Feel free to adjust seasoning according to your taste preferences and enjoy this crispy, flavorful snack that pairs wonderfully with a variety of dipping sauces.
