Cheese corn balls

Preperation time: 30 min | Cooking time: 15 min

It is always a nagging question my kids and husband keep asking on their way back from school and office.."What is for snacks today?" I'm really tired or rather out of choice as to what to make for them. In order to keep them happy, I would promise to cook something special the coming weekends. This is one among them.

Ingredients
Boiled sweet corn kernels-75gms
Boiled potatoes-100gms
Processed cheese (grated)-100gms
White pepper powder-1/2tsp
Breadcrumbs
Roasted vermicelli (semiya)
Corn flour-1tsp
Tabasco sauce-1/2tsp (optional)
Salt to taste
Oil for frying

For the batter
Maida (refined flour)-2tbsp
Water as required

Method
Add cheese and sweet corn kernels to mashed potatoes. Now add salt, white pepper powder and corn flour, Tabasco sauce and mix thoroughly. Shape the mixture into tiny balls and set aside.

Mix maida and water to make a thick batter.



Dip the tiny balls in the batter and then roll them in the breadcrumbs. Heat the oil in a pan and deep fry the cheese balls on a medium flame. Serve hot with sauce or ketchup.



Note: You may use roasted vermicelli instead of breadcrumbs. It has very crunchy outer layer.
