It’s no secret that we love cheese around here. But these little balls of fried cheese take it to a whole new level.
I’m always looking for fun appetizers to make. Although we can’t entertain right now, I’m prepared with a whole new set of recipes to make when we can start having people over again. Appetizers are my favourite – flavourful little bites.
Goat cheese is the cheese of choice for these fried goat cheese balls. The cheese is soft so it’s easy to roll into balls. I set up a dredging station to fry these babies up. Flour in the first bowl, an egg in the second and panko and cajun seasoning in the third. I season all the bowls with salt and pepper.

While the cheese if frying, I warm up the honey and then mix it with a few drops of Sriracha. I then drizzle the honey over top the fried cheese.
