2 tbsp. cold chicken stock
1 lb. raw shrimp
2 oz. fresh pork fat
4 water chestnuts, finely chopped
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. finely chopped fresh ginger
1 egg yolk
1 egg white
3 c. oil

Chop shrimp and pork fat together until they form a smooth paste. 3. Combine bread, shrimp mix, water chestnuts, salt, ginger and egg yolk and mix thoroughly. Beat egg white to a froth with fork and stir into shrimp mix. 4. Have shrimp mix, a bowl of cold water, a baking pan lined with double thickness of paper towels and oil within easy reach. To cook: Preheat oven to lowest setting. Pour 3 cups oil into 12 inch wok or large deep fryer and heat until haze forms above it or it reaches 350 degrees on thermometer. Take a handful of the shrimp mix and squeeze fingers into a fist, forcing the mixture up between thumb and forefinger. When it forms balls about the size of a walnut, use a spoon to scopp off the ball and drop it into the hot oil. Repeat until you have made 6 to 8 balls, dipping the spoon into the cold water to prevent sticking. Turn the balls with a slotted spoon to keep them apart as they fry. They should become golden in 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer balls to paper lined baking dish to drain and keep warm in the oven while frying the rest. Transfer balls to heated platter and serve.
