When he squeezed the meat mixture with his left hand until it formed a cylindrical shape protruding between his thumb and forefinger, he dipped a ceramic spoon in his right hand into water. Then, he gently scooped off the protruding part, and a small, round meatball took shape.
Carefully, he slid the meatball into the pot along the edge, then continued to squeeze out the filling and scoop out meatballs.

A gentle squeeze with the left hand, a scoop with the spoon in the right, and a round meatball was made. It was just like a magic show.
Lin Xu said, "This isn't easy to learn; it's a bit too advanced for you."
"Oh, I see..."
Chen Yan, not willing to give up, asked, "How advanced is 'a little advanced' exactly?"
