Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Shirataki noodles
- 250 grams White fish fillets (e.g., cod or tilapia)
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 500 ml Chicken broth
- 2 stalks Spring onions
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili flakes
Instructions
Drain and rinse the shirataki noodles under cold water. Boil them in water for 2-3 minutes to remove any residual odor, rinse again, and set aside.
In a food processor, blend the white fish fillets until a paste is formed. Add the egg, coconut flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and blend again until everything is well incorporated.
With wet hands, shape the fish paste into small balls, approximately the size of a ping pong ball.
Heat the chicken broth in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Once it reaches a gentle simmer, add the fishballs and let them cook for about 5-7 minutes or until they float to the top and are cooked through.
Meanwhile, slice the spring onions and chop the fresh cilantro. Set aside.
In another pan, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add the shirataki noodles and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes. Add fish sauce and continue to stir until well combined.
Once the fishballs are cooked, add the shirataki noodles to the soup. Simmer for another 2 minutes.
Serve hot, garnishing with chopped spring onions, cilantro, and a sprinkle of chili flakes for added heat.
