Potato and Cheese Balls
Discover the ultimate potato cheese balls recipe—crispy on the outside, gooey and cheesy inside! Perfect as a party appetizer or snack.
Ingredients
- 4 Medium Potatoes
- 15 Cheese Cubes
- Salt as needed
- ½ teaspoon Pepper Powder
- 2 teaspoon Red Chilli Flakes
- 1 teaspoon Oregano / Mixed Herbs
- 1 teaspoon Coriander Leaves
- 4 tablespoon Corn Flour
- 4 tablespoon Water
- Breadcrumbs as needed
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Take medium sized potatoes and cook them in a pressure cooker for 5 whistles or boil them well as per your convenience.
- Once cooked, peel the skin of the potatoes and mash them without lumps.
- Add salt, chilli flakes, pepper powder, mixed herbs, coriander leaves and mix well. Taste and adjust the seasoning as you like.
- Divide the mixture into equal portions. Roll each portion into a smooth ball with your palms.
- Fill them with mozzarella cheese cubes in the centre and seal them well. Make sure the cheese is completely covered.
- Mix the corn flour with water and make a corn flour slurry and coat the balls with the slurry. Once done, coat them in breadcrumbs.
- Freeze for an hour. You can fry right away but freezing makes it better.
- Heat oil in a deep pan or wok over medium heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
- Deep fry the balls in small batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve the potato cheese balls hot with your choice of dip.
