Potato balls are a staple food in rural areas. I don't know if you have ever tasted them. They are fragrant and have the salty aroma of bacon. If you taste them, you can see your mother busy in the kitchen...
Although what I make is not so gorgeous, it is the most authentic human nature and the most authentic life of ordinary people that I have ever tasted with heart. This is what I want-ordinary and simple days.

Steps for Potato balls
1
One day in advance, flood the meat with salt. The meat should taste delicious with some fat. This is a piece of pork belly, which I decomposed
2
I used a wiping board to scrape the two large potatoes into silk. Add a little salt to knead the shredded potatoes to let the water come out
3
Chop the onions and ginger into powder and place them in a basin for later use
4
After the bacon is submerged, rinse off the salt on the meat with water, and then chop it into minced meat, especially the fat ones. Make sure to chop it well.
5
Wring out the kneaded shredded potatoes and place them in the chopped seasoning. The remaining water will settle for a while, and just pour the potato starch in. Don't waste it
6
Put a little oil, chicken essence, thirteen spices, and soy sauce into the ingredients, then pour a large handful of white flour, add less warm water, and mix evenly
7
Lay the steamer on top and make small balls with your hands or spoon
8
Then do it all in turn
9
Put two or three slices of the pre-cut cabbage leaves on each potato ball, and then start steaming. After boiling, it will be ready in 10 potsPotato balls Make Tips
1: The meat is salty, so there is no need to put salt. Other seasonings should be put less, otherwise it will be very salty. 2: You can put cabbage leaves, lotus leaves, or corn leaves on the steamer, but the lotus leaves at home are run out of use, so I replaced them with baby cabbage leaves, but it is still good with lotus leaves. It is very fragrant when steamed. 3: Put the cabbage leaves on the potato balls, which will increase the aroma, or you don't need to put them, but putting them or not are really two flavors.
