CHEESE AND CHIVE CROQUETTES

Better known as cheese balls.....these are very easy to make and taste good too. This recipe calls for mozzarella cheese.....though having made them for many many years I know that a strong cheddar works very well too as personally I am not too fond of bland food. You may also go half mozzarella and half cheddar.

500 gms grated mozzarella cheese
1  1/2 cups flour
1/2  cup cornflour
4 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon pepper 
2 eggs
oil for frying

Combine all the ingredients and chill. Shape into balls and fry.(Add a little baking powder for a fluffier croquette).
For a fancy finish keep some of the flour and cornflour aside. Roll the balls in the flour - chill - then fry.
