Ingredients

  • 200 g Longli fish Asian carp
  • 2 eggs
  • 20 g Nori
  • 30 g Carrots
  • Salt to taste
  • Olive oil

Instructions

  • The fish is cut into strips.
  • Carrots and seaweed are finely chopped.
  • Separate egg whites and egg yolks.
  • Pour the fish into the cup of the juicer and add the egg white and a little water. (If you don’t have that or similar product, you can use a food processor and run for a bit longer).
  • Process the fish into a paste.
  • Empty into a large bowl.
  • Add the carrots and seaweed, and mix well. (If you are going to be feeding to a child under the age of one year, do not add salt. If they are over one year old, you can add some salt.)
  • In a smaller glass bowl, brush some olive oil around the bottom.
  • Pour the freshly mixed fish paste and flatten it with a spoon.
  • Steam for eight minutes at high heat.
  • After eight minutes, open the lid and pour the egg yolk into the surface of the mud.
  • Cover and steam for another five minutes.
  • Slightly cool, gently flip the bowl over onto a cutting board to release the fish. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice. (For children, you can cut into smaller pieces than shown above)
