1 Tablespoon of Fish Sauce
1 Egg - Lightly beaten
1 Tablespoon of Cornflour
2 Shallots(spring onions) - Finely sliced

In a food processor blend fish, curry paste, fish sauce, egg and cornflour until just combined.
Transfer to a bowl and add shallots and lime leaves.
Shape mixture into balls, flatten out to 1 cm thick.

To make the sauce:
