Elevate your keto meal plan with these irresistible Keto Asian-Style Fishballs—delicious, protein-packed bites infused with vibrant Asian flavors! Made with tender white fish fillets, aromatic ginger, garlic, and green onions, these fishballs are perfectly seasoned with a touch of soy sauce and sesame oil for an umami-rich taste. Coconut flour ensures these fishballs remain low-carb while adding a subtle hint of sweetness. Lightly pan-fried in healthy oils like coconut or avocado oil, they achieve a golden, crispy exterior while remaining juicy inside. Quick and easy to prepare in just 35 minutes, this dish is ideal for appetizers, meal prep, or a hearty keto-friendly dinner served with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
In a food processor, combine the white fish fillets, egg, coconut flour, green onions, grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper.
Pulse the mixture until it becomes a smooth paste and all ingredients are well incorporated.
Using your hands, form the fish mixture into small balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter. You should have around 20 fishballs.
Heat coconut oil or avocado oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
Add the fishballs to the pan, making sure not to overcrowd them. Fry in batches if necessary.
Cook the fishballs for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Once cooked, remove the fishballs from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the fishballs hot, accompanied by a low-carb dipping sauce or as part of a keto-friendly meal.
