Ingredients

  • 200 grams Mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 cup Gluten-free flour
  • 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 2 cups Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Grate the mozzarella cheese and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Mix well.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well beaten.

Step 4

In another bowl, combine gluten-free flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 5

Form small balls from the cheese mixture using your hands. Aim for about 1 inch in diameter.

Step 6

Roll each cheese ball in the flour mixture, coating evenly.

Step 7

Dip each ball into the beaten eggs, ensuring a complete coating.

Step 8

Roll each ball in gluten-free breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere.

Step 9

In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Step 10

Gently place the cheese balls in the hot oil. Fry in batches, being careful not to overcrowd, until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

Carefully remove the cheese balls from the oil with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 12

Serve hot and enjoy your delicious gluten-free fried cheese balls!
