Ati Babi

To me, these meatballs are a very quintessential part of Nonya cuisine and a dying feature at that. Very few people still make them, let alone know how to buy the caul lining. The trick is to visit a butcher in a wet market and ask him to keep it for you. Be sure that it does not smell bad or feel gooey. In the lead-up to Chinese New Year, it is most important to place your order well in advance too.
