Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large bowl, combine the cheddar cheese, diced potatoes, and diced jalapeno. Mix well and season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Form the Rockets

    Take a small amount of the cheese and potato mixture and shape it into a small rocket shape using your hands. Repeat until all the mixture is shaped.

  3. 3

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, prepare flour in one, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs in the third.

  4. 4

    Bread the Rockets

    Dip each rocket into the flour, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Ensure each rocket is well coated.

  5. 5

    Fry the Rockets

    Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the breaded rockets in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the rockets hot with cool ranch dressing on the side for dipping.
