Method

Preparation of Boudin Balls

  1. 1

    Prepare the mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the boudin sausage (removed from casings), cooked white rice, chopped green onions, and minced garlic. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.

  2. 2

    Add binders

    Stir in the beaten eggs, breadcrumbs, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the mixture is sticky and holds together when formed into a ball.

  3. 3

    Shape the balls

    Using your hands, scoop out a portion of the mixture and roll it into a ball about 1.5 inches in diameter. Repeat until all the mixture has been shaped into balls.

Frying the Boudin Balls

  1. 4

    Heat the oil

    In a deep frying pan or a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 5

    Fry the balls

    Carefully add the boudin balls to the hot oil, a few at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

  3. 6

    Drain and serve

    Once cooked, remove the boudin balls from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
