  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper

    Put all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Mix together by hand or a wooden ladle till well blended. Scoop tablespoons full of the beef and roll into balls.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a frying pan enough to fry the beef balls. Put the back of a wooden ladle in the oil. If the oil bubbles around it, then it is hot enough to fry. Put the beef balls one at a time into the oil. Fry till brown and turn the beef to fry on the other side. Fry all till done. The beef is cooked through when it is no longer pink in the inside.
