Fish Meatballs

Fish Meatballs

500 g whitefish fillets
1 small onion
2 cloves garlic
1 slice of bread (without the crust)
flour
parsley leaves
2 Tbsp oil
salt
ground black pepper

Soak bread in water, then squeeze the excess water out with your hands. Ground or finely chop fish. In a bowl combine ground fish, grated onion, pressed garlic, finely chopped parsley, bread, oil, salt, pepper and mix everything with your hands. Form balls from the mass, roll each into flour. Heat some oil in a pan and fry meatballs until done.

Tomato Sauce

300 ml tomato puree
thyme
garlic powder
1 tsp corn starch
salt
ground black pepper

Dissolve corn starch into 1 tbsp cold water. Heat tomato puree with the spices and thyme until it boils. Remove from heat and stir in the starch. Cook a little more until it thickens.
