Squeaky Cheese Balls

Squeaky Cheese Balls

Yes you read that right. There was a small pack of Yorkshire Squeaky Cheese in the discounts for 80p. When we had a play with it, it turned out to be very much like Mozzarella in consistency. So we “invented” Squeaky Cheese Balls!

Ingredients:-

Chilli powder
Garlic Salt
Black Pepper
Plain Flour ( Gluten free for us)
2 Slices of Bread ( Again this was home made Gluten free Olive bread left from an experiment the other day )
2 Eggs
Mozzarella style Cheese

Method:-

(1) Mix the Chilli Powder, Garlic Salt and Black Pepper into your Flour.
(2) Beat the Egg to make an Egg wash.
(3) Cut the Cheese into cubes about an inch / two and a half centimetres across.
(4) Wuzz the Bread to make Breadcrumbs.
(5) Heat a deep fat fryer to 160c.
(6) Dredge each piece of Cheese in the Flour mix.
(7) Drop into the Egg wash and coat on all sides.
(8) Roll in the  Breadcrumbs.
(9) Fry in small batches until they float and the  Breadcrumbs are golden brown.

We enjoyed these with home made Lacto - fermented Kimchi & Chilli Cauliflower, Coleslaw with Red Cabbage for a bit of colour, roasted Potato wedges and a small Pork steak each. Perhaps Spring has sprung and we can all start enjoying lighter meals again?
