Adım adım

1. 1

   Blend the fish fillet in a food processor until it forms a smooth paste.

   Aşçının notu: Ensure there are no bones left in the fish before blending.

2. 2

   Transfer the fish paste to a large mixing bowl.

3. 3

   Add the sago flour, salt, and sugar to the fish paste.

   Yaklaşık 1 dk.

4. 4

   Gradually add the cold water, mixing continuously until a firm, pliable dough forms.

   Yaklaşık 5 dk.

   Aşçının notu: Do not overmix; stop once the dough comes together.

5. 5

   Divide the dough into several portions and roll each portion into a long, cylindrical shape, about 1-inch thick.

   Yaklaşık 10 dk.

   Aşçının notu: Flour your hands lightly with sago flour if the dough is sticky.

6. 6

   Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil.

   Carefully place the rolled fish dough into the boiling water and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are cooked through.

   Yaklaşık 15 dk.

8. 8

   Remove the cooked fish rolls from the water and let them cool completely on a wire rack.

    Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or wok over medium-high heat until hot.
