Spam Balls

Spam Balls: Submitted by: Sandy | Date Added: 1 Oct 2010 Ingredients:

My sister 'V' came up with this concoction for her entry in the "Guam Spam Cook Off" Summer of 2003. Her recipe follows:

1/2 can of Spam (chopped)
5 tablespoons flour
2 eggs (beaten)
1/2 cup green onions (sliced finely)
1/2 cup carrots (diced small - brunoise cut)
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
Ground black pepper to taste

Canola Oil for frying

Serve with Finadene Sauce ~ A hot sauce from Guam - similar to the Indonesian Sambal Ulek. Recipe follows:

10 to 12 Hot Peppers
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped onions

Using a mortar and pestle mash hot peppers, add soy sauce and lemon juice; continue until you have a smooth sauce. The onion may be added with the peppers or some like to mince and add separately, just before serving. Keep in the refrigerator.

Yield 1 scant cup.
