These nam yee tofu meatballs are soft and moist inside with crispy edges. They are tasty, not salty if you think they are because of the nam yee. When you chew it slowly, there is a kind of fragrance.
These can be pre-fried and fried again just before meal time for added crispiness. I strong recommend to fry them twice cos' they do not stay crispy for long.Recipe adapted from my selected cookbook for Cookbook Countdown Event #5 -Yum Yum Magazine No. 48 [modified]
