Recipe for Herbed Chicken Cheese Balls
Ingredients
- 250 gms minced chicken
- ½ teaspoon red chili flakes
- ½ teaspoon crushed black pepper
- 4-5 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed
- A tablespoon full of fresh Celery, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon plain flour
- 1/4th cup grated or crumbled cheese (I’ve used equal quantities of hardened cheddar and feta, crumbled and mixed)
- 1 egg
- ½ cup bread crumbs
- Oil for frying
- Salt to taste
- 1 small onion
- 1 small green capsicum
- ½ teaspoon lemon juice
Cooking Directions
Squeeze all the liquid off the minced chicken and mix crushed garlic, celery, pepper, chili flakes and salt to taste.
Then add a heaped tablespoon of all purpose flour to bind it all together, knead and let it set in the refrigerator for about an hour.
While it sets, chop equal quantities of onion and capsicum into very fine strips, i.e, julienne them. Add the lime juice and sprinkle some salt, toss and keep aside.
Now beat one egg and keep in bowl, spread the bread crumbs on a flat plate, divide the cheese into 12 equal parts and make small balls of cheese.
Divide the chicken into 12 equal parts, flatten each part over your palm, make a small space in the middle by pressing with your thumb,
place one ball of cheese in the space and make a round tucking the cheese inside. Repeat the same with each chicken round.
