well, i am a huge fan of paneer recipes, but i generally avoid to have a cheese-based recipe. i personally feel bloated when i have too much cheese in my dishes. hence i generally avoid recipes like pizza or pasta which are overloaded with cheese. having said that, i am always keen on some lite snacks with some cheese in it. corn cheese balls recipe, is one such classic example of it. you need a small amount of mozzarella cheese to stuff inside the corn and vegetable mixture. i personally like the gooey texture and hence i have used mozzarella cheese but you may also try with other cheese variations. in addition, to cheese, you may also add paneer, but you may not get the same gooey or cheesy effect similar to mozzarella cheese.
anyway, before wrapping up the post, i would like to add some tips, suggestions and variations to corn cheese balls recipe. firstly, in this recipe, i have shown just one coating of breadcrumbs and slurry. if you are not comfortable and fear that cheese may ooze out, then go for double coating. you need to do coating twice. secondly, i would heavily recommend using panko breadcrumbs for a crispy and rough texture. also, it helps to hold the shape tightly compared to other breadcrumbs. lastly, the gooey texture of the cheese would start solidifying once it is rested. hence you may need to quickly microwave it for 10-20 seconds before serving it.
finally, i would like to highlight my other detailed snacks recipes collection with this post of corn cheese balls recipe. it mainly include my other detailed recipes like, potato lollipop, dabeli, goli baje, pizza bread, chegodilu, aloo ke kabab, beetroot vadai, aloo paneer tikki, dal dhokla, corn vada. further to these i like to highlight my other recipe categories like,
