Broccoli Cheese Bites
5 cups vegetable oil for frying
1 (16 oz) pkg frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained
4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3 1/2 cups dry bread crums
Salt and pepper to taste
Heat oil in deep fryer to 375 degrees. Place broccoli in a medium saucepan with 1 cup boiling water. Return to a boil. Cook covered until firm but tender, about 4 minutes. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the cheddar cheese. Mix in the broccoli. Allow the mixture to cool and thicken approximately 15 minutes. In a medium bowl, mix the bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Spread the mixture onto a large piece of wax paper. Form the broccoli cheese mixture into balls and roll in the bread crumb mixture until thoroughly coated. Deep fry the balls until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
