Well I never follow a recipe lol
Nothing is measured so I'll give you the ingredients and just go from there. I cleaned my gar and cut all the red blood line and fat off. If you plan to freeze the balls they say it's best to boil the meat. So I boiled it for about 10 minutes then drained.
Next I ground the gar, then I ground my vegetables. Onions, bell pepper, green onion, celery and garlic. I added salt, black pepper and Tony's Creole Seasoning. Again nothing measured....
The meat is dry and fluffy so I added a few cups of water and a dozen of eggs to moisten it up so it would form into balls. I mixed all this together real well.
I formed into a ball, dipped in an egg batter then rolled the balls in fish fry but you can use corn meal as well.
Deep fry and sample a couple before making all the balls to test to see if they are seasoned to your liking.
You can make them into patties as well and pan fry. I was going to add pics of the process but Photobucket is acting up again and won't give me the img code.
Enjoy
