Fish Balls Part Deux: Moins les "Carbs."

INGREDIENTS

-20 fish balls from an asian specialty store (see recipe below)**
-2 cups of soybean sprouts
-3 tbsp olive oil
-3 tbsp light soy sauce
-3 clovesgarlic
-1/2 lemon
-nickel-sized sliver of ginger

**This dish can also be made with sea scallops, or as they say in French, which ALWAYS sounds better: "Coquilles St. Jaques"!

DIRECTIONS

Heat the olive oil on medium in a pan and throw in the fish balls or scallops. Let simmer for a minute or two, then add the soybean sprouts and stir thoroughly while drizzling on the soy sauce. After about 7 minutes of stirring, crush the 3 cloves of garlic directly into the pan, along with a nickel-sized sliver of ginger, chopped into tiny pieces. Squeeze in half of a lemon, and continue to stir everything around for about 5 minutes. C'est fini! Pair it with a buttery Chardonnay or hot sake.
