"Fried Meatballs are fundamentally different from regular deep-fried meatballs!"
Old Gao set the oil pot on the stove, turned the heat to max, then brought over the pea starch that had been soaked in advance, first mixing it into a thin slurry and slowly pouring it into the marinated minced meat.
Then he sprinkled in some White Sesame and started mixing it with his hands.
Lin Xu asked curiously:
"What are the differences, Master?"
His understanding of Fried Meatballs was still stuck at ordinary deep-fried meatballs.
Off to the side, Xie Baomin said:
"The biggest difference is… dry."
Dry?
That counts as a difference?
Just as Lin Xu was about to tell his senior not to mess around, Old Gao said:
"Your senior's not wrong. The biggest feature of Fried Meatballs is that they have to be dry. If the outside isn't dry and crispy enough, that means they haven't been fried enough. If you squeeze one and oil oozes out, that means your heat control isn't quite there yet."
