Boudin Balls Ingredients

Method

Boudin Balls Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Boudin

    Remove the boudin from its casing and place it in a mixing bowl. Mix well to ensure a uniform consistency.

  2. 2

    Form the Balls

    Take a portion of the boudin mixture and roll it into a ball about the size of a golf ball. Repeat until all mixture is used.

  3. 3

    Set Up Breading Station

    In a bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the water. Set aside. Place flour and bread crumbs in separate shallow dishes.

  4. 4

    Bread the Boudin Balls

    Roll each ball first in flour, then dip in the egg wash, and finally coat with bread crumbs. Ensure each ball is evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Ensure there's enough oil to submerge the boudin balls.

  6. 6

    Fry the Boudin Balls

    Carefully add the breaded boudin balls to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown.

  7. 7

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the boudin balls from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Season with salt to taste and serve hot.
