Delicious and savory broccoli cheese balls make for a perfect appetizer or snack.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups broccoli florets, steamed and finely chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking oil, for frying
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped broccoli, cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, eggs, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
- Form the mixture into small balls, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Heat cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the broccoli cheese balls in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
