In potato cheese stuffed balls recipe, cheese and potatoes are two ingredients that are universally loved by everyone and when combined together makes a perfect and exciting combination! So, here we have got you a yummy recipe with potatoes and cheese as the heroes of the dish which will definitely make your tummy happy happy that is mozzarella stuffed potato balls.

Every bite of the Potato Cheese Stuffed Balls delivers an exhilarating rush of flavour. A crispy outer layer gives way to a tasteful mix of mashed potatoes, crunchy capsicum, and flavoring ingredients like chili flakes, oregano, coriander perk up the taste which in turn leads to a gooey cheesy centre.

Its fun preparing and relishing this appetizer! Its all about mixing the ingredients together, shaping them and frying! All we have done is combined mashed potatoes with capsicum, coriander leaves, green chilies, ginger garlic paste, oregano, chili flakes and dry mango powder. We have also added maida to the mixture which helps in binding the ingredients, absorbs excessive moisture and will make our cheese potato balls crispy.

Further, we have mixed and divided into portions. If the mixture doesn't hold together, add more refined flour. Next, we have shaped each portion in a flat ball, placed mozarella cheese in the center and shaped them into round balls. Next, dipped them in cornflour slurry and rolled in bread crumbs and deep fried until golden brown and cooked. Instead of bread crumbs, you can make use of panko crumbs or crushed cornflakes to coat the cheese potato ball. Always while coating with breadcrumbs and slurry, make use of two different hands so the breadcrumbs don’t turn soggy and there is a limited mess.

Potatoes being a very bland ingredient, we are making use of both green chilli paste and chilli flakes to provide a fiery hint to mozzarella stuffed potato balls. If making for kids and they do not prefer spice then skip adding chilli flakes or replace chilli flakes with chilli powder or black pepper powder so, they don’t get that spicy bite.

Make sure you do not fry the balls on a high flame because the cheese will not melt. Serve Indian style cheese balls immediately, as they may turn soggy and are usually best enjoy hot!

    5. Add capsicum. They give a nice colour and crunch to the potato cheese-stuffed balls. Other crunchy vegetables like peas, corn, broccoli, spring onions, bell pepper can also be used.
    6. Add coriander.
    7. Add green chilli.

    21. For frying aloo cheese balls, heat the oil in a deep non-stick pan and drop a few balls at a time. To check if the oil is hot or not, drop a little mixture and if it comes up easily (after a few seconds) and you see small sizzling bubbles then the oil is ready to fry the cheese-stuffed mashed potato balls. If the mixture does not come up easily, the oil is not hot & if the mixture comes up quickly, the oil is hotter. So adjust the temperature accordingly to fry the loaded cheesy mashed potato balls evenly.
    22. Deep-fry cheese stuffed potato balls on a medium flame till they turn golden brown in colour from all the sides. Depending upon the size of the pan and potato cheese balls, add 3-4 balls at a time and ensure the pan is not crowded or else the cheesy potato balls will stick to each other and break.
