Fried Goat’s Cheese Balls with Smokey Honey Sauce

Ingredients

1. Prepare 3 shallow bowls: In the first, add flour, the second add egg, milk and salt; in the third add panko breadcrumbs and parsley.
2. Wearing rubber gloves, roll tablespoons of goats cheese into even-sized balls. Roll each cheese ball in the flour, then dip in the egg mix and dredge in the panko crumb.
3. Coat each ball again with the egg and panko crumb (the double crumb with make the balls extra crunchy) and set aside on a lined baking sheet. Freeze for 30 minutes or until firm.
4. While the cheese is freezing, prepare the hot honey sauce. Combine honey, hot sauce and smoked paprika in a bowl and mix until well combined.
5. Microwave for 30 seconds to warm the honey and stir again to combine.
6. To cook the cheese balls, heat 3cm oil in a large fry pan over medium-high heat. Fry balls in batches turning in the oil until golden on all sides (2-3 minutes). Remove and transfer to paper towel to drain.
7. Serve hot with smokey hot honey sauce.
