This is a great recipe, once you try it, it will always be a favorite. I don't deep fry often but this is worth it!! I some times add mozzarella cube in center and have a little tomato sauce on the side The size of the balls will determin # of servings Ingredients:
2 italian sausages, cassings removed |
1/2 lb ground beef |
1 onion, small, chopped |
1 1/2 cups frozen peas |
2 tablespoons tomato paste |
1 cup romano cheese |
3 cups cooked rice |
1 large egg, beaten |
1 cup breadcrumbs |
vegetable oil (for deep frying) |
Directions:
1. Cook sausage meat, chop meat and onions 2. Drain grease. 3. Add peas and tomato paste. 4. Add cheese. 5. Mix with cooked rice. 6. Shape into balls ( I find bigger than a golf ball, smaller than a base ball is about right ). 7. Dip in egg. 8. Roll in bread crumbs. 9. Deep fry till brown 2-3 at a time.( 2 minutes ). 10. drain on paper towel. |
