Meat Balls with Dip

I've left over mince which i bought earlier and i didnt want it to be sittin in my fridge for an extra day. I'd wanted to turn it into a meat patty but too bad i dont have any burger buns at home to go with so i decided to make meat balls with it. 

You can use any type of mince but bear in mind that different type of poultry will require different seasoning ingredients to make it tastier. I had minced lean pork seasoned with black pepper, light soy sauce, fish sauce, cayenne powder, cornflour and salt. Marinate it for a few hours. 

Shape the bowl of mince into balls and coat it with cornflour then dip it in the egg batter and finally breadcrumbs. You can shape the mince into balls batch by batch. When you've put the first batch for fryin, you can prepare the second batch n so forth till you finish the bowl of mince.

As for the dip, pound the garlic and shallots together and stir-fry it with butter and after that add in water, chili sauce, tomato puree, hot chili sauce and plum sauce. Sugar and salt to taste. Keep stirring the dip over a lower fire until it thickens. When its ready dish out.
