This dish is a marriage between two dishes I did earlier. The kids love croquettes and they love this new dish the most, especially the girl because she refused to eat her rice. All she wanted was these balls. And she had four of them! Read more ! I did a batch without the cheese inside because my son didn't like cheese 'cooked' and he will simply refuse to eat the food with cheese in it. Yap, he doesn't eat pizza as well. Anyway, those without cheese taste just as good.
