Mix all ingredients well, place into baggie and refrigerate overnite.
Form into small 1 inch diameter balls.

When ready to cook, you have three options:

Fry them in a skillet with a little peanut oil, till done.

Drop them into hot Asian-style flavored soup, cook and serve with the soup.

Bake them at 350 degrees in oven for about 30 minutes to 45 minutes.

These are WAY YUMMMY. Good snack food, works as a main dish. You could also serve these with Shirataki noodles and a low carb peanut sauce.
