There are a number of other Brazilian Cheese Puff Recipes out there but most of them use a starch and Parmesan cheese. This is a great variation that is a bit easier to make than the traditional puffs. Ingredients:
2 large egg whites |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2-1 cup swiss cheese, grated |
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs |
oil (for frying) |
1/2 cup parsley, finely chopped |
Directions:
1. Beat egg whites and salt until stiff. 2. Add enough cheese to allow mixture to be handled as dough. Roll into balls the size of a walnut. Coat with bread crumbs. 3. Fry in hot oil, drain on paper towels. 4. Sprinkle with parsley and serve hot. |
