Ingredients:
- 4-5 eggs , depending upon their size
- a little flour
- (you could also add as much garlic as you can tolerate, for a change)
Directions:
- Grate the cheese and the bread. Mince the parsley. Put the breadcrumbs through a strainer to insure that there are no large pieces, and combine them in a bowl with the cheese and the parsley; season the mixture with a pinch of nutmeg, a grind of pepper, and a little salt, keeping in mind that the cheese is also salty.
- The mixture will be fairly stiff; turn it out onto a floured counter top
- And divide it into 2-3 equal parts. Roll them under your palms to make snakes the diameter of your thumb, and cut the snakes into 1 1/4-inch lengths. Roll the pieces between your palms to make balls, flatten them so they are about a half-inch thick, and flour them.
- While you are preparing the balls set your oil to heat on the stove; it
- Should be quite hot but not smoking.
- Beat the remaining eggs in a bowl; dredge your cheese balls in the egg, and fry them in the hot oil for a couple of minutes, or until golden.
- Drain them on absorbent paper and serve them hot, with tomato sauce for those who want it.
