  • Bring a pot of water to a boil, add 25 g rock sugar and white radish. Wait for it to boil and turn down heat to medium. Cook for approx. 20-30 minutes until soft then drain and set aside This will infuse some sweetness into the white radish and remove some of the bitterness, if any

  • Clean baby octopus. Remove beak and cut a slit in the head to remove all the organs if not already done. Set aside
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step3
  • Bring another pot of water to a boil, add chicken hearts, baby octopus and the beef omasum. Cook beef omasum for 2-3 minutes until cooked, submerse in cold water, cut into smaller pieces and set aside. Cook chicken hearts and baby octopus for approx. 4 minutes until cooked, drain and set aside. I boiled them separately but boiling them together is fine too

  • Bring a big pot of water to a boil. All the following ingredients need to be boiled for a few minutes to wash off some of the oil that is on the foods. When water boils, add fish balls, wieners, fish siu mai and wheat gluten balls. When water boils again, remove everything except for the wheat gluten balls, they’ll need an additional 5 minutes to soften the inside. Deflate them and set aside

  • In a bowl, combine 4 tbsp curry paste, 4 tbsp smooth peanut butter, 2 tbsp Chinese barbeque sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp Chu Hou sauce, ½ tsp turmeric powder and 1 tbsp spicy bean paste and set aside
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step6
  • Prepare a few slices of ginger, chop garlic and shallots If you like ginger, you can also mince it and mix it in with the sauce. I usually keep them in slices so that I can easily fish them out
  • In a wok, pot or large pan, on medium high heat, add 2 tbsp oil and add sliced ginger. Stir-fry until lightly toasted
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step8
  • Add chopped shallots and garlic. Stir-fry until aromatic
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step9
  • Make room in the centre of the pan or push everything to one side. Add sauce mixture. And let it cook for one minute while mixing the sauce together
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step10
  • Then mix together with shallots and garlic
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step11
  • Add 2 cups broth, bring to a boil and turn the heat to low
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step12
  • Combine 2 tbsp cornstarch with 2 tbsp water. Mix and slowly pour into the curry sauce. Mix well until thickened
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step13
  • Taste the sauce. Add some dark soy sauce to adjust the colour of the sauce. Add light soy sauce and sugar to adjust the taste. I added 1 tbsp of dark soy sauce and 2 tsp sugar to mine
  • Turn heat to medium-high and add everything that’s set aside except the fish siu mai (the skin will fall off if you simmer it in the curry sauce so just add those when you’re ready to serve). I usually keep the same kinds together so that they can be easily found. Mix them within their own groups What goes in will be the deep-fried fish balls, wieners, baby octopus, beef omasum, white radish, chicken hearts and wheat gluten
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step15
  • When sauce starts to simmer, turn heat to low, cover with lid and cook for 10 minutes
    Auntie Emilys Kitchen-HK Curry Fish Ball Medley-Step16
  • Add fish siu mai
  • Serve
