My contemplating place...when I have a lot to think about but no paper in hand...when I envy people who have a little time to write yet they publish many written thought. My hiding place and excuses... After all...it's about food and it came from my humble small kitchen in a corner of cold place.

Prawn-Meat Balls Soup (Sup Bola-bola Udang dan Daging)
Seems like I had been serving tempeh to my family for the whole week for the past week. From simply deep-frying it to stir frying and making spicy sambal. Last Thursday I felt like giving my family anything but tempeh. Therefore I made this soup.
Ingredients:
To make prawn-meat balls:
- 200gr skinless prawn, grind with chopper
- 150gr ground meat (chicken, beef or pork)
- 4 cloves of garlic, chop thinly
- 3 cloves of small red onion, chop thinly
- 2 green onion, chop thinly
- 1 tsp ground white pepper
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 egg
- 2 Tbsp maizena/corn flour
- 1 Tbsp fish sauce
- oil for saute
To make soup:
- 4 chicken drumstick
- 4 cloves of small red onion
- a bunch of sweet peas, discard the hard part
- a bunch of cut carrot
- 2 green onion, chop thinly
- water
- margarine/oil for saute
- ground white pepper
- salt
- sugar
In a pan, saute garlic and onion with a little bit of oil for 2minutes. Move it to a mixing bowl and mix it well with ground prawn and meat and green onion. Add pepper, nutmeg, fish sauce and egg and mix it well. Add flour and mix it well again. Put it aside.
In a pot, boil chicken drumsticks with app. 1.5L water. When it is boiling, take a small amount of the prawn mix and make a small ball and then put it in the boiling water. Do it again and again for all the mix. Wait until it is cooked. The balls will come up on the surface when they are cooked. Add carrot and sweet peas and continue to cook for 3minutes. While waiting, saute onion with a little bit of margarine or oil in a pan for 2minutes and then pour it into the soup. Taste the soup with pepper, salt and sugar. At last add the green onion.
Serve it hot and sprinkle some fried onion.
This time, I add some Palembang fish crackers as side dish.
