Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Shrimp Balls
- Start by chopping the shrimp into small pieces or pulse them in a food processor until coarsely ground, ensuring a mix of texture.
- In the mixing bowl with the ground shrimp, add breadcrumbs, one beaten egg, garlic powder, and finely chopped green onions. Mix gently until combined.
- Sprinkle in your seasoning mix, incorporating any additional spices you might love. Stir thoroughly to coat each piece of shrimp.
- Form the shrimp mixture into small balls, roughly the size of a golf ball. You should yield about 12-15 balls.
- Heat enough vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat until it shimmers, about 4-5 minutes.
- Carefully add the shrimp balls to the hot oil, frying for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Remove the shrimp balls and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
