Ingredients
- 500 grams white fish fillets (e.g., cod or haddock)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 50 grams cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons red curry paste
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by thoroughly rinsing the white fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 2
Using a food processor, pulse the fish fillets until finely chopped and resemble a coarse paste.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the chopped fish, egg, coconut flour, cream cheese, chopped cilantro, red curry paste, lime juice, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Step 4
With slightly damp hands, shape the mixture into small balls, about the size of a golf ball. You should have approximately 16-18 fish balls.
Step 5
Heat the coconut oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
Add the fish balls in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan, and cook for about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7
Remove the fish balls from the skillet and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 8
Serve the Keto Curry Fish Balls warm, garnished with extra cilantro if desired. They can be enjoyed on their own or paired with a keto-friendly dipping sauce.
