chutney bombs recipe | chatni cheese bombs | green chatni cheese balls with detailed photo and video recipe. a crispy and tasty cheese ball recipe made with green chatni stuffing and potato layered covering. it is a perfect kid snack recipe which has the perfect balance of spices in it and hence can also be treated as party starters or appetiser. generally, it has all the flavour within it and do not require any additional side to it, but tastes great with spicy maggi tomato sauce or spicy green chutney.
basically, the recipe is very similar to the corn cheese balls recipe, but an addition chutney to the stuffing. the chutney is the popular green chutney that is used for chaat and sandwich recipes. it is spicy, tangy and also filled with fresh herbs and spice flavours from chaat masala. thus when combined with cheese makes an ideal snack to relish. i personally recommend this as a kids snack which has all the goodness of cheese in it, with a topping of nutritional fresh herbs. moreover, with the coating of panko breadcrumbs, the stuffing does not ooze out easily and holds its shape for a while. you may easily prepare this in advance and just microwave it just before serving.
furthermore, some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to the popular chutney bombs recipe. firstly, i would heavily recommend preparing the green chutney freshly at home. this is because it has to be dry with minimal moisture in it. you may strain the store-bought chatni before using it as stuffing. secondly, i have applied a single coat of breadcrumbs which should be sufficient to hold its shape. if you feel the cheese would ooze out you may opt for double coating. perhaps you can try one ball to test and proceed with the next batch. lastly, the panko breadcrumbs are the ideal choice for this recipe, but you may use other options like oats, crushed corn and even rusk powder.
