This fish ball recipe is made from flaked dalagang bukid or redbelly fusilier which is very common in our local wet market. Unlike the fish balls sold by street vendors which consist mainly of flour, this recipe doesn’t have flour nor cornstarch. Sweet potatoes, breadcrumbs and eggs are used as binders to form it into balls and create this tasty appetizer.

To cook sweet and sour fishballs; Boil fish with ginger in 2 cups water for 10 minutes. Drain. Flake meat and discard bones. Season with iodized salt or rock salt, soy sauce pepper. Blend well with the rest of the ingredients. Form every teaspoon of mixture into a ball. Fry until golden brown. For the sauce: Combine the first 5 ingredients . Simmer. Add dissolved cornstarch and simmer, stirring constantly until cooked. Add bell pepper and green onions. Pour over fishballs just before serving.
