I love shrimp balls, but not the deep fried ones. Steamed dumplings are great but often take more time than I want. These are easier than apple pie but taste terrific and are low fat. I often leave out the water chestnuts. Other additions are green onions or garlic to taste.
Ingredients:
2 lbs shrimp, minced (shelled and deveined)
6 canned water chestnuts, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 egg whites
1 teaspoon cornstarch
3 teaspoons olive oil
pepper
green onion, minced
garlic, minced
Directions:
1. Place everything into a bowl and mix together.
2. Shape mixture into small balls. Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Spray balls with olive oil (I use a spray bottle) and bake at 350ºF for 25 minutes.
3. Serve hot with lemon wedges or chili sauce (sweet or not).
