Almondegas do Mar - Seafood balls with green sauce

This whole idea started from a group I joined in facebook called A Portuguese Cook - The Series.
As we were talking about food and comparing the Portuguese Meatballs with the Italian ones, the Founder of this group came up with the idea of what about creating seafood balls with the traditional Portuguese flavours.

A few days ago I did a fish sauce that I was real happy with so I decided to incorporate it here. In terms of the seafood balls themselves, imagine an açorda but thicker in a ball.

INGREDIENTS FOR THE SEAFOOD BALLS

2 lbs of Minced Shrimp
1 lb Minced Crab Meat
2 lbs Minced fresh cod fish
1 can Clam Juice
1 bunch Cilantro
1 bunch Parsley
2 Minced Onions
6 cloves Minced Garlic
4 Eggs
salt and pepper to taste
Canola oil to fry

DIRECTIONS

1. Mince all of the seafood, onions, cilantro, parsley, garlic
2. In a bowl mix it all together along with the clam juice and the eggs
3. Create 1.5 inches balls
4. In a pan add the oil then gently brown the balls. Remove them and set aside

INGREDIENTS FOR THE SAUCE

1 bunch Cilantro
1/2 bunch Parsley
1 cup Green onions
4 cloves garlic
lemon juice from 3 lemons
1 cup seafood stock (from the shells and fish bones)
1 cup Heavy cream
1 tbsp peppercorns
a dash of sea salt

DIRECTIONS

1. Add all ingredients in a blender and blend it until you get a nice smooth green sauce
2. With the pan still warm, remove excess oil add the green sauce
3. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes, then add the heavy cream
4. Add the seafood balls to warm them up

Serve over white rice and chopped fresh tomatoes over it along with a few cilantro leaves
