If you love cheese and the concept of an arancini, you'll love these! With the new year quickly approaching, I've been busy recipe testing some new ideas on what to serve guests. I came up with these cheese bites - a play of the classic frozen mozzarella sticks packed with flavour.

Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Heat your choice of frying oil in a small pot (oil is ready for frying when you place a few breadcrumbs inside and they crisp nicely)
Prepare a baking tray and a wire wrack on the tray close to your oven (setting up your frying station)
In a large bowl, add your Boursin cheese spread, salt, pepper and Caciocavallo cheese and set aside
In a small bowl, add your eggs and whisk, set aside
In another small bowl, add your breadcrumbs and set aside
With a cookie scooper, begin to measure out your mixture of Boursin cheese into even balls and shape them as round as you can, set them aside on a large tray or plate
Once all balls are roll, begin by dunking them into the egg mixture, followed by the breadcrumbs and place them back on your tray
Once all balls are coated, begin frying
Allow to cool slightly on the wire wrack and serve
Enjoy!

Notes

I highly recommend flash freezing and maybe even double coating them if you want them to hold their circular shape. This recipe makes 18 bites. Depending on which ice cream scoop you use to shape your bites, they could be smaller and you could end up with more this way.
