Black Pearl Balls
When entertaining guests during the Spring Festival, you must want to cook something different. It is easy, delicious and unique. Don't worry. You must like this "black pearl ball" I brought today.The idea of this black pearl meatball comes from the "Pearl meatball" we often eat. Because white glutinous rice is readily available, we often use it to make this meatball. It is hairy like white pearls. It is very pleasant. It is both a dish and a part of the staple food. Today, I will use purple glutinous rice instead of white glutinous rice. Although it is the same method, the rare purple glutinous rice flashes a metallic luster after steaming. It is the so-called "new dishes for new faces"!Since it is a meatball, you must put some meat, and the purple glutinous rice with a little gravy will be more oily. Glutinous rice has the effect of strengthening the spleen, while purple glutinous rice is rich in anthocyanins, which can remove free radicals in the body and make the body healthier.Well, to make a long story short, you should follow me to make a dish. It is definitely a time-saving and easy-to-use Spring Festival dish that can be served and sold. If you have to tell a moral, the round balls mean "round and round", the red shrimp tail at the top means "red (Hong) luck", and the purple black shape looks like a black pearl means "money rolling"!1. Purple glutinous rice is hard and has strong water absorption. It must be fully soaked several hours in advance to absorb enough water before use, so as to ensure that the steamed purple glutinous rice is soft glutinous and not hard core;2. The quantity of shrimp, the quantity and size of meatballs are adjusted as you like; The ratio of shrimp meat to pork is not fixed. The meat stuffing with shrimp meat has high protein content and tastes fresh and tender. It is OK to put no shrimp or other materials instead;3. The steaming time depends on the size and firepower of the balls.
Step 1 . Put the purple glutinous rice into the big bowl. The dosage in the picture is about 200 grams, but the actual dosage is only 100 grams. The remaining purple glutinous rice can be stewed or boiled porridge;
Step 2 . Wash gently and quickly with clean water twice, and then soak purple glutinous rice with clean water for several hours, preferably one night in advance;
Step 3 . This is completely soaked purple glutinous rice; Drain the rice soaking water and save it for stewing and porridge, because the rice washing water is rich in water-soluble vitamin B, vitamin K and some minerals;
Step 4 . All the materials for making black pearl balls are ready: soaked purple glutinous rice, 10 shrimp, an appropriate amount of pork stuffing, a piece of green onions, a little salt and raw soy sauce;
Step 5 . Remove the head and tail of the prawns and peel off the shell. You can pick out the shrimp intestines with a toothpick. If you don't mind or the shrimp intestines are relatively clean, it's OK not to remove them. Long time steaming can completely eliminate the bacteria in them; Shrimp tail is reserved for decoration;
Step 6 . Put the shrimp, pork stuffing, scallion, shrimp and raw soy sauce into the meat grinder;
Step 7 . Grind these materials into meat puree. If it is too dry, add some water to make the meat puree more smooth; There is no need to put starch or egg white into shrimp meat stuffing that is hard to beat;
Step 8 . Take an appropriate amount of shrimp meat into a ball, roll it in the purple glutinous rice for a few circles, and then press the purple glutinous rice firmly with your fingers. This is the green body of black pearl balls;
Step 9 . Place the purple glutinous rice shrimp balls, namely black pearl balls, on the plate, and then insert the shrimp tail on the top of the balls;
Step 10 . Put the black pearl balls into the steamer, 110 degrees for 20 minutes; If you use an ordinary steamer, put cold water into the pot and steam for 20 minutes after steaming over a high fire;
Step 11 . After coming out of the pot, sprinkle a little chopped shallots on the black pearl balls for decoration. The green chopped shallots echo with the red shrimp tail, which is very beautiful.
