Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients from the Pork & Rice group and all ingredients from the Seasoning group. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
Form the mixture into 1-inch balls.
Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with Flour, one with Egg, and one with Panko Bread Crumbs.
Dredge each boudin ball in Flour, then dip in Egg, and finally coat with Panko Bread Crumbs.
Heat Vegetable Oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the boudin balls in batches for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through.
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
