Cheese balls are very simple in terms of preparation technology, affordable in products and wonderful in taste. They can be served with or without sauce, as an appetizer for intoxicating drinks, or simply as a hearty side dish. This dish, like any deep-fried product, is not made for future use. You should eat the balls immediately after frying, because as they cool, the taste will become noticeably worse. Thus, we calculate the amount of food for one meal and start cooking. We offer two recipes to choose from - with regular hard cheese and melted mozzarella.

Cheese balls made from hard cheese recipe

This type of cheese balls is prepared using a simple dough - a mixture of egg whites, cheese and a small amount of flour. The appetizer turns out to be very appetizing - a delicate melted cheese mass is hidden under the beautiful browned crust. This is a great dish for lovers of express cooking - fast, simple and tasty! There are different types of cheese that are suitable here. The main thing is that it melts well, then the filling will be perfectly viscous when hot.

Ingredients:

• hard or semi-hard cheese (Russian, Gouda, etc.) - 130 g;
• flour - 2 tbsp. spoons;
• egg whites - 2 pcs.;
• salt - a pinch.

For breading:

• flour - about 1/3 cup.

For deep frying:

• vegetable oil (refined).

How to make deep-fried cheese balls

1. Three small shavings of cheese.
   
2. Carefully separate the whites from the yolks, add a pinch of salt and work with a mixer until a strong, stable mass is obtained. To ensure that the protein mixture is safely whipped to the desired consistency, before starting work, we check the dishes for cleanliness and dryness. Remains of fat, any contaminants, as well as admixtures of yolks or excess moisture can disrupt the process, and then it will be difficult, and sometimes impossible, to bring the whites to the desired state. A properly whipped mixture becomes noticeably denser and does not run off or move when the work bowl is turned over.
3. Add shavings of cheese to fluffy whipped whites. Next add 2 tablespoons of sifted flour.
   
4. Mix the protein and cheese mixture. We get a soft and sticky dough. If the mixture spreads and does not hold its shape at all, you can add flour, but just a little - there is no need to oversaturate and weigh down the cheese dough with flour.
   
5. Sift flour onto a kitchen board for further breading. With palms moistened in water, pinch off pieces the size of a walnut or even a little smaller from the cheese mass, roll into balls and place on a flour layer. You will get approximately 10-15 blanks.
   
6. Dip the balls thickly in flour, covering all sides with a white coating. Shake off excess flour so that it does not burn in the hot oil.
   
7. In a small, thick-bottomed saucepan, heat the vegetable oil (only refined oil is suitable for deep-frying). It is important that it is warm enough before dipping the balls. You can check by throwing a small piece of cheese dough into the pan - if there are no signs of boiling, then the deep fat is still cold. The amount of oil depends on the size of the dish - it is necessary that the balls are completely immersed in oil. Load the balls into the heated fryer - cook in small batches, about 3 pieces at a time. We lower the products on a slotted spoon so that they do not touch the bottom (otherwise the resulting crust may burst and the cheese will flow out). Keep the balls in the sizzling oil until browned on all sides. Do not forget to constantly stir the products, not allowing them to stick together and touch the bottom.
   
8. We catch the browned cheese balls with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate covered with napkins - the paper will help remove excess fat. At the same time, we are preparing the next batch.
   
9. Let's start tasting before the cheese balls have time to cool completely. You can supplement the snack with spicy ketchup or prepare it in advance (for example, as in the shawarma recipe).
   

Cheese balls with mozzarella recipe with photo

Fried mozzarella has long established itself as a tasty and versatile snack. Thanks to its properties, this cheese melts perfectly and turns out to be very tender and deliciously stretchy. These cheese balls are very easy to prepare, because you don’t even have to knead the dough - the mozzarella pieces are completely breaded in breadcrumbs and deep-fried until ready. The only point to take into account here is that mozzarella itself is almost bland. Therefore, we recommend that lovers of spicy and salty snacks take care of the sauce in advance.

Ingredients:

• mini mozerella (in balls) - 100 g;
• egg - 1 pc.;
• milk - 1 tbsp. spoon;
• salt, pepper - to taste;
• flour - about 30 g;
• breadcrumbs - about 50 g;
• vegetable oil (for deep frying).

How to make mozzarella cheese balls

1. Place the mozzarella balls in a colander - the whey should drain completely. To help the cheese melt better during frying, take the mozzarella out of the refrigerator in advance and let it warm up to room temperature. If you get the mozzarella not in balls, but in one whole piece, you can cut it into large cubes and cook it that way.
   
2. Mix the egg with milk, add a pinch or two of salt and ground pepper. Shake the mixture with a fork, trying to bring it homogeneous. Distribute the sifted flour and breadcrumbs into different plates (the latter can be replaced with a loaf of bread, removing the crusts and grinding it into crumbs in a blender bowl).
   
3. Blot the mozzarella balls with a paper towel to remove any remaining moisture. Then dip into flour one by one and roll on all sides.
   
4. We “bathe” the flour-coated ball in the milk-egg mixture.
   
5. Next, generously bread it in breadcrumbs. Then again dip into the liquid egg mixture and roll in breadcrumbs again. This double breading is necessary so that the cheese does not leak out during deep frying.
   
6. As in the previous recipe, thoroughly heat the oil and fry the balls until golden brown. If the oil is well heated, the products will cook quickly, in about 20-40 seconds. Don't forget that you need to deep-fry in small portions, otherwise the temperature of the oil will drop sharply.
   
7. We take out the finished balls with a slotted spoon and place them on a dish covered with napkins. Let's start eating right away. Cheese balls with mozzarella are ready!

They say that it’s better to eat them right away, still hot, but I like it better the other way around, when they’ve cooled down a little, but fresh, not for tomorrow. Therefore, make in small portions; my ingredients are indicated for small quantities. If you like it, knead it some more.

I usually think about balls when I have a piece of cheese lying around. I see that the end will soon come to him, and I immediately put it into action. They also fry it fresh and it turns out much tastier.

Cheese balls - recipe with photos step by step

We will need:

• Hard cheese – 200 gr.
• Flour – 100 gr.
• Salt – a pinch.
• Eggs – 4 pcs.
• Vegetable oil – 200 ml.

Cooking fried cheese balls - step-by-step recipe with photos:

Grate the cheese, preferably on a fine grater, then the consistency of the dough will become correct and the balls will become airy. Take hard cheese, a little dry cheese that has been sitting on a shelf in the refrigerator will do, Russian and Dutch varieties are just right.

Break the eggs and separate into whites and yolks. You can do as you please with the yolks, and beat the whites thoroughly into a foam, adding a little salt. By the way: yolks are also used, they do not spoil the picture, but in the original recipe only whites are beaten.

Add cheese to the whipped egg whites and stir well.

Next, look at the situation: if the dough is a bit liquid, and it should be thick enough to make balls, then add a spoonful of flour and grate a little cheese. Try the dough, if there is not enough salt, add a little.

Roll the dough into balls. I was in a good mood, and I attached noses to some of the balloons. And you can give it any shape - it is not forbidden. You can generally depict the shape of the sticks.

Dip each cheese roll in flour and start frying.

Pour oil into a small saucepan and heat thoroughly. Throw in a few balls at a time, how many will fit depends on the size of the pan, and fry for 2 - 3 minutes. Keep in mind that during frying the balls, although not much, will increase in size - do not put a lot at once.

Rotate the balls so they cook evenly.

Place a paper napkin on a plate. Take out the finished products and place them for a minute or two, allowing the excess oil to drain.

I'm sorry, the bowl of cheese balls wasn't full. My family loves them, they literally carried the balls from under our hands, in the heat, in the heat - they didn’t have time to cool down. And the poor bowl could not be filled. Ate!

We prepared cheese balls according to the simplest recipe. But the recipe is always the basis, friends. And the kitchen is a creative place!

Snacks can and should be varied. Add a couple of cloves of garlic to the cheese balls. Add cumin and other spices as desired. I think next time I'll add some finely chopped ham and see what happens.

In short, create and get creative, but don’t forget to share your impressions in the comments. With love... Galina Nekrasova.

How to make cheese balls at home - general recommendations

You can improvise a lot on the theme of cheese snacks. The balls look very impressive - they go off with a bang. To make them elegant, it is better not to make blanks that are too large in size. The cheese ball is too big and it will be difficult to eat. It is convenient to serve hot balls on skewers, and you can arrange them on lettuce leaves. You will get a real delicacy if you use red caviar for decoration.

It's easy to make cheese balls at home, even with sweet ingredients like chocolate. In this case, it is better to take cream cheese. You just need to mix it with chocolate. A little butter is added to them. To decorate the sweet dessert, use coconut flakes or nuts crushed into crumbs. She also prepares a similar snack with strawberries.

Video: Snack Balls

Hot, sticky cheese in a crispy breading is an excellent appetizer for friendly gatherings with friends.

The tastiest thing is to make snack balls from different types of cheese. This time I had 2 types of hard cheese and soft feta cheese.

INGREDIENTS:
for 4 servings

Hard cheese - 200 gr
Feta cheese - 50 gr
Eggs - 2 pcs
Flour - 50 gr
Breadcrumbs - 50 gr
Oil for frying - 400 ml

Grind the hard cheese on a fine grater, mash the feta cheese with a fork. Place in a deep bowl, add one raw egg and mix well until smooth.

Roll the resulting dough into small balls - the size of a walnut. To prevent the balls from sticking to your hands and make them even, wet your hands with cold water.

From the given amount of ingredients I got 12 cheese balls.

Now it is important to bread the balls well so that the cheese does not leak out during frying. Beat the egg in a bowl along with a couple of tablespoons of water. Roll the ball in flour, then in egg and breadcrumbs.

We carry out the procedure with each cheese ball, after which we repeat the breading: again flour, egg, crackers. Thus, the cheese will be under double protection.

Place the finished balls in one row on a plate and put them in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes. During this time, the crust will harden, which will allow you to keep the melted cheese inside during frying.

Heat the vegetable oil well in a saucepan or tall ladle. We lower our cheese pieces into boiling oil for literally a minute: take them out as soon as they turn golden. Immediately place them on a paper towel to remove excess fat.

We fry the cheese balls in small batches: 4-5 pieces, depending on the size of the dish where the oil is boiling. The balls should float freely.
