Preparation
- In a food processor, or by hand, crush ½ a box of Triscuits. Set aside.
- Combine all of the filling ingredients in a large bowl.
- Pinch off bite sized balls of filling and roll between your hands (about 1 oz or 28g each).
- Roll the balls in the crushed Triscuit mixture, then coat it in beaten egg, then again in Triscuit mixture.
- Heat a sauce pan of vegetable oil to 350˚F (180˚C). Line a tray with paper towel to drain the fried bites.
- Fry each bite until Triscuit coating turns a light brown, about 45 seconds.
- NOTE: If they’re fried too long, the cheese filling will escape and you’ll be left with a sad shell of a former cheese bite.
- Garnish with more chopped dill and a squeeze of lemon. Serve immediately.
- Enjoy!
