Directions

Combine all the ingredients minus the vegetable oil in a food processor and blitz until a little coarse.

If you want to test the seasoning take a small dollop of the fish paste and quickly saute in a pan and check for seasoning.

In a pot fill at least 2 inches of vegetable oil and heat to 350 degrees. (you can also shallow fry these in a pan about 2 min each side) and using a tablespoon drop a dollop of the fish paste into the oil and fry for about 3-5 min rolling them around often. When a little golden brown take out and drain on a paper towel.

Serve with lime wedge and your favorite sweet chili sauce
