Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Categories     appetizer

Time 50m

Yield 16 rice balls

Number Of Ingredients 8

Vegetable oil, for frying
All-purpose flour, for breading
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 eggs, beaten
Panko breadcrumbs, for breading
2 cups overcooked, moist, mushy rice, cooled and dried out slightly (see Cook's Note)
1 cup grated Gruyere cheese
1 cup 1/4-inch-diced smoked ham

Steps:

  • Fill a saucepan halfway with vegetable oil and heat until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil registers 350 degrees F.
  • Put some flour in a shallow bowl and season with salt and pepper. Put the eggs and panko in separate shallow bowls.
  • Form the rice into 1 1/2-inch balls. Push some of the cheese and ham into the center of each ball and press the rice around the filling. Dredge the rice balls in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess, then in the egg followed by the panko.
  • Place a few of the balls in the hot oil and cook until golden brown all over, about 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining rice balls. Drain slightly on paper towels and serve.

Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 12 pockets

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 quart neutral oil
1 cup shredded mozzarella
One 4-ounce block cream cheese, softened
1/2 tablespoon garlic salt
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
All-purpose flour, for dusting
One 13.8-ounce tube prepared pizza dough
1/2 cup cooked crabmeat
Fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed pot fitted with a deep-frying thermometer.
  • Combine the mozzarella, cream cheese, garlic salt and crushed red pepper in a food processor. Pulse until a thick paste is formed, about 30 seconds. Set aside.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the pizza dough to form a 16-by-12-inch rectangle. Use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out 10 to 12 rounds of dough. Use your fingertips to gently stretch each round of dough into a 4-inch circle. Top a round of dough (slightly off-center) with 1 heaping teaspoon of the cheese mixture and 1 teaspoon crabmeat. Fold the dough in half over the filling to create a half-moon. Press the edges together to seal the pocket and crimp with the prongs of a fork. (See Cook's Note.) Repeat this process with the remaining circles and filling.
  • Preheat the vegetable oil to 350 degrees F and line a plate with paper towels.
  • Working in batches, carefully lay the pizza pockets in the hot oil. Fry until deeply golden brown, 1 to 1 1/2 minute on each side. Remove from the hot oil to the lined plate to cool slightly.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley.

CHEESE BITES (TOTALLY ADDICTIVE)



Cheese Bites (Totally Addictive) image

Ridiculously addictive appetizers. I brought them to a party and everyone attacked them like starving piranha on a cow. I included them in a tin of cookies for my hubby's co-workers and one of them ate all of them before anyone else could try them. She also demanded the recipe. From the cookbook "Fix, Freeze, Feast" by Katie Neville and Lindsey Tkacsik. Make them ahead of time, keep in your freezer and bake what you need. I plan to have these on hand all the time.

SPICY CHEESE BITES



Spicy cheese bites image

Classic French nibbles that are devilishly moreish

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Snack, Starter, Supper

Time 25m

Yield Makes around 24

Number Of Ingredients 6

85g plain flour
50g butter , chopped
50g mature gruyère , grated
25g fresh parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), finely grated
2 eggs , well beaten
1l vegetable oil , for deep frying

Steps:

  • Sift the flour and a little salt into a bowl. Set a non-stick pan on the heat with 150ml cold water and the chopped butter. Bring to the boil, stirring until the butter melts. Tip in all the flour and, using a wooden spoon, beat hard until the mix becomes smooth and starts to leave the side of the pan.
  • Remove from the heat, beat in the gruyère and half the parmesan and cool for 5 mins. Gradually beat in the eggs until you have a smooth, thick, but spoonable mix - you may not need all the egg. Can be set aside now for 2 hrs without chilling.
  • When ready to serve, heat the oil in a deep-fat frying pan to around 180C. Using 2 teaspoons scoop up neat dollops and carefully drop into the hot oil. Fry 6-8 dollops a time for 3-4 mins until golden and crisp - dunk the dollops under to brown evenly. Reheat the oil as necessary. Drain on paper towels, sprinkle with the rest of the parmesan. Serve hot.
