Spiced Seafood Balls with a Twist



Not your ordinary sweet & sour meal. Something new for the family to taste.
Found this recipe originally named as Anise Spiced-Seafood Balls, but due to lack of ingredients (usually depends on the availability of the ingredients at home), we invented something with a not-so-sour taste and changed its name, ingredients, and directions for cooking. So, that makes it our own original recipe. 


Ingredients for the seafood balls:

100 grams crabmeat / imitation crabsticks, chopped
100 grams shrimp, chopped
1/2 white onion, 2 tbsp. garlic, chopped & minced
1/2 finger chili, seeds removed & chopped *optional
1 egg beaten ---  salt to taste
1/3 cup flour  --- 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup milk


oil
beans, for garnish (broiled)


Ingredients for the sauce:

3/4 cup tomato sauce
1 cup water
flour (estimate for desired thickness of the sauce)
3 tbsp. brown sugar
3 tbsp. vinegar (white wine vinegar)



Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients for balls. Deep fry.

2. Create sauce by heating together all ingredients.

3. Pour sauce over balls and garnish with beans.
