Teter fish has many health benefits, but not everyone likes this fish. Based on this, various processed forms are needed in order to attract other people to continue consuming tethered fish. One of these processed forms is fish nuggets. The purpose of this community service activity is to provide education to the community, especially mothers in the Indonesian Family Welfare Guidance Program or PKK in Sorkam District, Central Tapanuli Regency about the use of teter fish meat as a processed material for making fish nuggets. The method used is the delivery of material and direct practice in making fish nuggets. The result of this community service activity is the ability of PKK women to make processed fish nuggets and package the product properly. In the future, fish nuggets can increase family income and are sold as a typical food of Central Tapanuli. © 2022 Abdimas: Jurnal Pengabdian Masyarakat Universitas Merdeka Malang This is an open access article distributed under the CC BY-SA 4.0 license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/) How to cite: Rosmasita, R., Ghazali, T.
