Got permission from mom to post the recipe.

things you need: wok(chinese frying pan) and food processor.
1 medium shad, 4-8 medium size shrimps, and about 3-4 medium scallops.

ingredient: 1 stem of green onion, 1 tsp salt and sugar, 1/2 tsp pepper, 4 cloves garlic, 1 tbs olive oil, and 1/2 tbs fish sauce(optional),corn oil, and rice flour.

1 medium whole shad: start out by fillet the shad just like you fillet the salmon, disregard all the skins and not to worry about the bone the food processor will taken care of that. chop each fillet into 3 piece and put it into food processor, add the shrimp, and scallop.
chop the green onion and garlic put it in the processor, next add the salt, sugar, pepper, and fish sauce ,start the food processor. while it running add olive oil to it, get a spatula or spoon stir and let food processor run for about minutes or until it almost starting to look like paste.

add the corn oil to the wok or pan and heat it on medium high, use a table spoon to scoop up the paste and works with your hand to mold it into ball shape(like spaghetti meat ball). ball size determine the cooking time, pour the rice flour on a plate and start rolling the shad ball, be sure the rice flour cover it all and start frying. let it fry until it turn golden brown. you can eat it plain or dip in tartar sauce. hope you all enjoy, bon appétit
