Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons yucca flour or tapioca starch
  • 1 cup finely grated feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup finely grated queso fresco or fresh farmer cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • pinch salt
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Method

  • Mix all ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well using our hands until you have a soft dough.
  • Form small balls using your hands.
  • In a deep pot, heat vegetable oil to 300 degrees F (warm not very hot). Carefully drop the balls in the warm oil. Fry until golden brown - about 5 to 7 minutes. Flip them if they don't flip themselves. You don't want the oil too hot - they will blow up.
  • Remove from the oil and drain in a bowl lined with paper towels.
