This cheese & sweetcorn balls will not only be loved by kids but elders will also enjoy them. When anyone bites into this crispy snack their mouth is filled with melted cheese and sweetness of corns. As its a very quick starter they can be made in no time.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup of grated processed cheese
- 1/2 cup very finely chopped capsicum
- 1/2 cup sweetcorn kernels (blanched and bit crushed)
- 2-3 green chili s finely chopped
- 1/2 tea spoon pepper powder
- 1 tea spoon dry oregano
- 2 tablespoons of cornflour
- 2 table spoons of maida
- 1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
- 1 tea spoon chili flakes
- salt
- oil
METHOD:
Take the grated cheese in a bowl. Add the chopped capsicum and sweet con kernels in it and mix it well.
Now add the green chili, pepper powder, salt and oregano and mix the mixture well. Mixture should be handy enough. Add more grated cheese if required to improve the binding.
Make small lemon sized round and firm balls of that mixture and keep them aside. Mix cornflour, maida and little salt and make a thick batter of it using water.
Spread the breadcrumbs on a plate and mix the chili flakes with it. Heat oil to deep fry.
Now take a cheese ball and dip it in the cornflour and maida batter and them roll it into the breadcrumbs.Deep fry them on medium flame till golden brown and crispy. 4-5 cheese balls can be fried together.
Remove them on kitchen towel when done to remove excess oil. Serve this hot cheese and corn balls with tomato chili sauce.
Preparation Time : 15 mins
NOTE : Use only sweet corns or American corn for this cheese balls as they are more sweet and juicy as compared to the regular Indian corns.
Had these irresistible cheesy corn balls at a party once & fell in love with them..But always not confident to try it at home...without egg n all for binding..Thought the cheese mixture would not hold shape when frying..But your recipe is so perfect & tempting..Bookmarked dear & thx a ton for sharing this :)

Dear Sidhhi
Finally I got lots of sweet corn from Mother diary outlet. Will try out on Sunday. Actually contrary to my belief , sweet corn is available every where, the Indian corns are not many in the market ....
Have a great weekend
