- Parmesan Cheese
- Day-old cooked rice
- Egg
- Milk
- Salami
- All-purpose flour
- Salt
- Black Pepper

- Chives
- Vegetable Oil
Instructions
Mix the cheeses (Gruyère, Brazilian Standard, and Parmesan), all grated, in a bowl.
Dica: The complete quantities for the ingredients are in the video description.
Add the day-old rice, egg, and milk to the cheese mixture and stir well.
Fold in the diced salami into the batter.
Season the batter by adding salt, black pepper, and Meyer lemon zest.
Dica: The lemon zest adds freshness to the recipe.
Adjust the batter consistency by lightly sprinkling in all-purpose flour, adding the minimum necessary until it can be shaped.
Dica: Avoid overdoing the flour to ensure the batter holds together well but isn't heavy.
Finish the batter by mixing in the chopped cilantro and chives.
Place the prepared dough in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up properly before frying.
Dica: This step helps the dough retain its shape and makes frying easier, especially if too much flour wasn't used.
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet until it reaches 350ºF (180ºC) for deep frying.
Shape the balls using the aid of two spoons and fry them in the hot oil until evenly golden brown.
