METHOD FOR MAKING CHEESE CORN BALLS RECIPE
1
Pressure, cook the potatoes with skin till soft on touch. Do not overcook them. Cool, peel and grate the potatoes.
2
Coarsely crush the boiled sweet corn in a mixer grinder.
3
In a bowl, add the grated potatoes, crushed sweet corn, grated cheese, salt, black pepper powder, ginger, and green chili paste, coriander leaves, and cornflour. Mix all the ingredients into a smooth mixture. There should be no moisture. If the mixture has a lot of moisture or soggy, add breadcrumbs to help bind the mixture. Make small lemon sized balls of the cheese corn mix and set in the fridge for a few minutes.
4
Heat oil for deep frying in a heavy-bottomed vessel. Lightly coat the cheese corn balls in cornflour, dip in the batter and place over bread crumbs. The balls should be evenly coated with bread crumbs.
5
Place each ball in the hot oil and reduce the flame to medium-high. Do not overcrowd the vessel by adding too many balls. Towards the end of the cooking process increase heat and deep fry till golden brown in color. Carefully remove the fried balls onto an absorbent paper.
6
Place the cheese corn balls in a serving bowl and serve with tomato ketchup.
TIPS
You can add any flavor of your choice like garlic powder, oregano or red chili flakes.
