Chicken Cheese balls are a childhood Ramadan favorite, Ramadan is just not complete until I don’t make these at least 3 to 4 times and now it’s also my kids favorite. Potato, chicken and cheese balls are deep fried golden and crispy, once you break them open delicious gooey cheese oozes out and is there anything better than that!! The trick to making your breading super thick so it doesn’t separate in the oil is to make sure you stick the cheese balls in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before frying them. The coating becomes firm and adheres to the cheeseballs better and there is a nice thick crumb coating on the outside when its deep fried. This recipe conveniently uses the Multi Purpose Chicken https://flavoredbyfatima.com/2020/02/21/all-purpose-chicken/ which makes it a breeze to make them.
