Ingredients

  • 200 grams Gouda cheese
  • 50 grams Parmesan cheese
  • 60 grams All-purpose flour
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 120 grams Bread crumbs
  • 30 milliliters Milk
  • 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg
  • 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly cracked
  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt
  • 500 milliliters Vegetable oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

Grate the Gouda cheese and Parmesan cheese into a large bowl.

Step 2

In the same bowl, add the all-purpose flour, a pinch of salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly into the cheese.

Step 3

Crack 1 egg into the bowl and mix until the mixture forms a sticky, moldable dough. If the mixture is too dry, add milk one tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.

Step 4

Using your hands, shape the cheese mixture into small balls, roughly 1 inch in diameter. Set them aside on a parchment-lined tray.

Step 5

In a shallow bowl, whisk the remaining egg. Place the bread crumbs into another shallow dish.

Step 6

Dip each cheese ball into the whisked egg, ensuring it is fully coated, and then roll it in the bread crumbs to cover completely. Repeat with all the cheese balls.

Step 7

In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil to 180°C (350°F). Test the oil by dropping a small piece of bread into it; if it sizzles and turns golden in a few seconds, the oil is ready.

Step 8

Carefully fry the cheese balls in small batches for 2-3 minutes, turning them occasionally for an even golden-brown crust. Do not overcrowd the pan.

Step 9

Remove the fried cheese balls with a slotted spoon and drain excess oil on paper towels.

Step 10

Serve the Bolita Di Keshi Cheese Balls warm with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own!
