Ms. My – Deep-Fried Fish Balls with Fish Sauce

Golden Bites of the Sea

At 237 Ton Dan Street, District 4, the irresistible aroma of deep-fried fish balls draws a steady stream of regulars. Ms. My, who moved to Saigon at 14, taught herself to cook and built a thriving business that now sells over 100 kg of her signature fish balls each day. Crisp on the outside, tender inside, and drizzled with her signature fish sauce, they’ve become a neighborhood favorite.

For the speed and consistency her work demands, she trusts the H Cookware Carbon Steel Pan. Its even heat distribution and durability let her maintain quality dish after dish, saving her from the monthly replacements common in street food kitchens.

Watch Ms. My in action — frying, glazing, and serving up batch after batch of her famous fish balls, proving that the right tools keep Saigon’s street food traditions alive.
