Learn to be my son's favorite -- octopus balls

Introduction:

"All kinds of snack stalls and snacks in front of the school are not attractive to my son. He only loves octopus balls. Whenever you see a car selling octopus balls, you will buy a box. This kind of flowing snack always can't let people rest assured, so I lost an octopus ball mold and made it at home. In order to get closer to the taste of the snack stand, I bought a box of them and watched them for a long time to learn how to round them. A lot of things seem easy, but it's really difficult to do them. Small meatballs also need to be practiced several times before they can be successful, especially the son's mouth with extremely sensitive taste and his picky eyes, which are not all color, fragrance and can't be eaten in a big way. "

Production steps:

Step 1: peel and wash the yam, cut the processed yam into small pieces, put it into the blender and beat it into mud.

Step 2: wash the fresh Octopus feet, cut them into several sections, scald them in boiling water, take them out, rinse them with cold water and cut them into small pieces; chop the cabbage, dice the onion and set aside.

Step 3: sift low gluten flour and baking powder, add egg and yam paste.

Step 4: pour in clean water, stir well, pour into measuring cup, set aside.

Step 5: evenly brush a layer of salad oil on the octopus burning mold.

Step 6: heat the mold with high fire, turn to low fire, pour the batter into the mold, about 8 or 9 minutes full.

Step 7: Sprinkle onion, octopus and cabbage into each ball in turn, and use a bamboo stick to put the material into the ball.

Step 8: fry in low heat for a while, gently pluck the edge of the ball with a bamboo stick, check if the bottom is congealed and hardened, turn the ball over with a bamboo stick and let the batter flow down. If you feel that the ball is not full enough, you can add some batter slightly; turn the whole body over again, the original bottom is up, and the ball is shaped; continue to fry, and stir the ball many times in the middle, so that it is heated evenly Stir fry until the skin is golden.

Step 9: pick out the balls and put them on the plate.

Step 10: Sprinkle with zhaoshao sauce, salad dressing, seaweed powder (or seaweed slices can also be cut up), wooden fish flower.

Materials required:

Low gluten flour: 100g

Yam: 50g

Baking powder: 1 / 4 tsp

Egg: 1

Water: 270ml

Octopus: 2 tbsp

Shredded cabbage: 2 tbsp

Onion: 1 tbsp

Zhaoshao sauce: right amount

Salad dressing: right amount

Seaweed powder: appropriate amount

MuYuhua: moderate amount

Salad oil: a little

Notes: 1. The most important thing in making octopus balls is the roundness of the balls. You can turn the balls with two long bamboo sticks. 2. The key to round and plump meatballs is not to use too little batter. If there is too little batter at the beginning, you can add an appropriate amount in the middle. 3. It is very important that after the mold is heated, it must be slowly fried with a small torch. If the fire is large, the skin of the ball will scorch. 4. Octopus balls have no flavor in themselves. They need to be seasoned with zhaoshao sauce, salad dressing and seaweed powder. I feel that MuYuhua has no special flavor. It seems that decoration plays a greater role. So if you can't buy home-made products, you don't need to force them. The overall taste won't be affected too much.
