My Grand mother and my mother used to make Gangan (Belitung style fish soup) for our family. We lived near seaside when I was a kid, no wonder I love seafood. Guess, what is the best part I love in this soup?. Cassava!! Singkong...ooohhh..singkong :)
My grandmother´s recipe heritage has been used by three generation in our family: my grandma(nenek), my mother(ibu) and me :). This dish really bring me back to my childhood. I used to help her and my mother to make the fishballs. They made fishballs with feeling, without measurement so that I just know the basic recipe. Normally, Fishballs contain tapioca flour, white eggs to keep them firm. But she used only Ikan Tenggiri (in Indonesia, species called Tenggiri: Scomberomorus guttatus) or Spanish Mackerel (Scomberomorus commerson), coconut milk and spices.
Years a go, I tried to make it with fish paste (not spanish mackerel) that I bought in an Asia Markt. It turned out horribly. The fishballs broken , spreading and floating everywhere in the water :(. That was my first trial and error using another kind of fish. To get the best result, the choice of fish type is important. So, Please don´t blame me if this recipe doesn´t work with other kinds of fish :). Anyway, don´t throw it away you can still make fishballs for Tekwan (see the recipe here).
Hopefully, this entry is suitable for Original recipe, Culinarty round-up arranged by Lore.
Ingredients: for Homemade Fishballs, makes about 40
Beragam Soto ada di Indonesia, mulai dari Soto Betawi, soto Bandung, soto Kudus, Soto Pekalongan, Soto Ambengan Surabaya, Soto Madura, Soto Banjar, Soto Padang, Coto Makassar....dll, sampe Soto Belitung. Soto Belitung ini biasanya di buat sama Ibuku yang terdiri dari 2 versi, yang pake santen dan Soto bening tanpa santan. Nahh..yang ini versi pake santan, biasanya pelengkap sajian saat hari Raya, tapi di Hamburg ini sering banget bikin....masakan andalan..he..he, soalnya bisanya cuman bikin yg kayak gini.
