Sixi meatballs are one of the classic Shandong dishes. They are composed of four big meatballs, which represent the four great events of Fu Lu Shou Xi, but when there are a lot of people, four balls in one plate are not enough, so I made 12 of them. The method of Sixi meatballs is similar to the method of lion head, only because of the difference in quantity, so my dish is also called braised lion head! The name is not important, the important thing is that we eat happily and talk enthusiastically.
Bite away the hidden gold in the Sixi balls, it's so good and creative, even the chef will look at you. This is true. On the surface, my Sixi balls are no different from ordinary ones, but after biting them, you will find "Golden House Cangjiao"-salted egg yolk inside. I steamed the salted egg yolk for 10 minutes. Although the oil in it came out, it didn't have the fishy smell, and it blended well with the meatballs. The meatballs on the outside are delicious, and the salted egg yolk sand noodles on the inside. This method breaks the traditional routine, and everyone who has eaten it praises it well. The hidden gold inside not only pleases the cheers, but also increases the fun of eating. "
