Ingredients

• 1 pound boudin sausage
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 eggs
• 0.25 cup milk
• 1.5 cups panko breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
• 4 cups vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized bowl, crumble the boudin sausage, removing any casing if present.

Step 2

Form the crumbled boudin into 1-inch balls by rolling between your palms. The mixture should hold together well.

Step 3

In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth.

Step 4

Place the flour in a separate shallow dish, and the panko breadcrumbs mixed with Cajun seasoning in another.

Step 5

Dredge each boudin ball in flour, coating evenly. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 6

Dip the floured balls into the egg mixture, ensuring they are completely covered.

Step 7

Roll the balls in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the breadcrumbs well.

Step 8

In a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Ensure there is enough oil to submerge the boudin balls completely.

Step 9

Fry the boudin balls in batches, about 3-4 at a time, to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 10

Use a slotted spoon to remove the balls from the oil, and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 11

Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as Creole mustard or remoulade.
