Spicy Fish Balls In Tomato Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Wash the fish, pat dry with kitchen paper and cut into small pieces.
• Place into the bowl of a food processor with the coriander, salt, pepper, eggs, cream or yoghurt, half the breadcrumbs and the lemon juice and process for 45 seconds until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
• Chill the mixture for an hour.
• Whizz all the sauce ingredients together in a food processor or blender to make a smooth sauce.
• When you are ready to cook the fish balls, pre-heat the oven to gas mark 6, 400F (200C).
• Heat a little oil in a heavy frying pan.
• Using your hands, form the fish mixture into snooker sized balls, roll them in the remaining breadcrumbs and fry them gently, turning them occasionally until they are an even golden brown.
• Place the cooked fish balls in a shallow baking dish and pour over the sauce.
• Bake in the oven for 20 minutes until bubbling.

Steps:

• Make the sauce first. In a wide pan, fry the garlic in oil till the aroma rises. Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, salt, and chili pepper or cayenne. Add about 2 cups (500 mL) of water and bring to the boil. If you leave the chili pepper in throughout the cooking, the sauce might end up too hot for you, so taste the sauce and remove the pepper when you feel the sauce is hot enough.
• For the fish balls, mix all the ingredients together and work to a firm paste with your hands. (If you use the food processor to grind the fish, do so very briefly or it can turn into a creamy puree.)
• Take lumps of paste the size of a small walnut and roll into little balls.
• Drop them one by one into the sauce and simmer for 20-25 minutes turning them over once.
• Serve accompanied by lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Arrange fish in a 1-1/2-qt. microwave-safe dish coated with cooking spray. , In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; pour over fish. Cover and microwave on high for 3-4 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
