Failure in making meat ball

Initial plan of the night was wanted to make steam egg with minced pork, but suddenly come across Michelle's cookblog on making this Potatoes Meat Ball, since the ingredients are just almost the same. So I was thinking why not tonight I try to something different.

Follow as what told in the ingredients and steps. For frying part, I do not have breadscrumb on my hand. After thinking and get some advise from Msaufong, think I can replace it with frying flour, since thats the only thing I have. Minced the meat, mash the potatoes, seasoning it and I even added in some carrot fine slice. After finish preparing meatball, rest a while then started to cook.

My this frying flour instruction there said need to mix the flour with water, so I follow. Knead the meat into small ball, coated with the flour and put in the hot oil deep fry it. OMG, you know what happen, the small ball is out of round shape. After trying a few, I was thinking it must be too wet, either the meat or the flour shouldn't mix with water. So I try the rest coat only with flour. The outcome is slightly better than previous one, but the meat ball is still out of shape and both when deep in the oil it is very much stick to the wok and it causes many black burn stick to the meat ball..Can see some meat ball cooked at outside but not cook inside.

Ahh...totally no eye see, half cooked half burned. Since it is late, I don't want to fry anymore, left the half bowl of meat put it to steam with eggs. For half cooked meat ball, I double heat it again with microwave.

About 10 meat balls there, I ate most by myself, left 2 pcs looks a bit presentable for hubby to try. Can find the taste there but the frying makes worst of it. What a failure.... I got to find out where is my problem with the recipe's author later.
