Fettuccini with Fiddleheads and Bocconcini

Recipe ingredients

1/2 small chorizo sausage, cooked
200 g Saputo cocktail bocconcini cheese, drained
125 ml (1/2 cup) flour
2 mL (1/2 tsp.) chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
3 eggs
30 mL (2 Tbsp.) milk
250 mL (1 cup) bread crumbs
1 L (4 cups) oil, for deep frying

Preparation

Cut the chorizo lengthwise into quarters then cut each piece crosswise into 36 small triangles.
Make a small incision in each cocktail bocconcini and insert a piece of chorizo.
In a small bowl, combine the flour, chili powder, salt and pepper. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the milk. Place the bread crumbs on plate.
In a large saucepan, heat the oil to 365˚F (190˚C). Working in batches, roll 1/4 of the stuffed cocktail bocconcini in the flour, dip them in the egg mixture, then roll in the bread crumbs. Fry the bocconcini for a minute or so, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
Serve with cocktail bamboo skewers.

Suggestion

Little bites of stuffed cheese are hard to resist, especially with a creamy avocado and sour cream dip. If you have vegetarians in your house, try stuffing the bocconcini with a small piece of bell pepper instead of the chorizo.
