These Cheese Balls are very versatile and come handy in crisis situations. Its a great party snack and goes very well with drinks. Kids love it too. So when you intend to make this, make it in a large quantity, say double or triple the quantity mentioned in the recipe. You can use whatever you like and the rest just arrange it in a plate and put it in the freezer for about an hour. Once the balls freeze, put them in a ziplock bag for later use. When ever you need to use them, just thaw it in room temperature and roll it in bread crumbs and deep fry.
Ingredients:
2 potatoes, boiled and mashed,
1/2 carrot, grated,
2 tbsp, fresh green peas, par boiled,
1-2 green chillies, finely chopped,
1 tbsps coriander leaves, finely chopped,
3 tbsps grated cheese (I used Amul cheese),
Salt to taste
Oil for deep frying
For coating:
1 cup bread crumbs
Method:
- Combine mashed potatoes, green peas, grated carrot, grated cheese, green chillies, salt and coriander leaves. Prepare lemon sized balls.
- In a small bowl, place the bread crumbs. Roll each ball on bread crumbs and keep aside.
- Heat oil for deep frying in a heavy bottomed vessel. Once it piping hot, reduce flame and place the balls into the hot oil and deep fry on medium flame to high flame till they turn golden brown. Remove onto kitchen paper.
