Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Rather than grinding the shrimp too finely, chop them coarsely with a knife to achieve a pleasantly springy, chewy texture.
  • Increasing the amount of starch makes it easier to shape the balls, while reducing it intensifies the natural shrimp flavor.
  • Garlic burns easily even with residual heat, so remove it from the pan as soon as it turns golden brown to avoid bitterness.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a luxurious, restaurant-style shrimp dish at home.
  • Those looking for a visually impressive and delicious main dish for entertaining guests.
  • Those who want to fully experience the springy, chewy texture of shrimp.
