Mock turtle with egg and fish balls
What has mock turtle with fish to do.
Only that there are fish balls in the dish
and this is my favorite New Year's Eve.

Procedure without liability: You begin the day before the dish to be eaten. The meat is placed in a large saucepan with 2 to 3 liters of water. The water brought to boil and foam, when it boils. Season with salt and let it simmer for an hour. Then add all the cleaned herbs and cook further during low heat for another hour and a half. When meat is tender take it up and sieve the soup. Discard herbs, soup saved for the next day. The meat will be in pressure for the next day.

Second day cut the meat into bite pieces and put into this sauce. Of butter and flour make a dumpling in a suitable large saucepan. The soup is poured in small quantities up to 1 ½ liters. The soup that has been cooked up and skimmed for fat. Remember to whip well so no lumps in the sauce. Find a suitable consistency and season with salt, the four spices and sherry. Stain the sauce with food color. Add small meatballs and gently warm it all through. Fish balls warmed separately in a hot oven 220 degrees for approx. 10 minutes. Pour them over the dish before serving together with half cut the eggs.
