Cheesy Chicken Balls/ Bola Ayam keju

"Children Learn more from What you are than What you teach"

Selam...... Merhaba from turkey....

With small kids around the house we must always ready with any healthy and yummy meals so anytime we can provide them within a minute. For that I always make stock some whether homemade chicken nugget, croquette or this cheesy chicken balls. Whenever I need it, I just take out from my freezer, let it defrost and warm it up.

This cheesy chicken ball is one of my favorite too.. serve it warm and we'll get best cheesy chicken ball ever. I usually store them in freezer after fry them, just thaw some on room temperature before warm it up on microwave or low temperature oven.

 Ingredients:

• 300 gr Chicken meat, minced
• 100 gr boiled carrot, finely cubed (optional, I always put vegetable for my kid)
• 50 gr tapioca starch
• 4 big cloves of garlic,finely minced
• 1 Tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tsp mustard
• 1 small stalk green onion, finely chopped
• 1 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
• 1/2 tsp pepper powder or to taste
• pinch of sugar
• melting soft cheese (like cheddar), cubed about 1,5 cm square

For coating:

• 1 egg, beaten with 2 Tbsp water
• 2~3 Tbsp all purpose flour
• Bread crumb/ panko
• Cooking oil for deep fry

How to:

1. Put everything (except cheese and carrot) into food processor and process few minutes to well blended. Move the mixture into medium bowl, mix in carrot and lightly knead with your hand. You can taste the taste by fry small amount of batter.
2. Prepare coating ingredient; flour on one platter and bread crumb on another one.
3. Take the dough (about 3/4 tbsp), put cheese cube in the middle and shape into a ball (no need to make perfect round shape). Roll the ball onto flour,shake the excess then dip into egg wash and last roll over the bread crumb. Do same method to all remaining dough.
4. Heat enough cooking oil for deep fry. Cook the chicken ball over medium heat just until they turn golden brown. Strain and drain them well.

Serve hot/ warm immediately.

Note: the batter a bit messy (like meatball dough), slightly wet your palms with oil when you shape into a ball.
