Frosted Meatballs

Ingredients

Beef (minced) 200g
Sugar 150g
Egg yolk 1
Wet starch 50g
Flour 10g
Soybean oil (for frying) 50g

Instructions

1

Prepare the meat mixture

Mince the beef into a paste, place it in a bowl, and mix well with the egg yolk, wet starch, and flour.

2

Fry the meatballs

Heat oil in a wok to medium temperature. Squeeze the meat mixture by hand into small balls about 2 cm in diameter, drop them into the oil, and fry until golden brown. Remove from the oil and drain.

3

Coat with sugar syrup

In a pan, combine oil, water, and sugar and cook over heat to make a syrup. When the syrup turns pale yellow and forms threads when lifted, add the fried meatballs, remove from heat, and toss to coat them evenly. Transfer to a plate and sprinkle a layer of sugar on top before serving.
