DIRECTIONS:
- In a large mixing bowl, I combine the steamed and chopped broccoli with the cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses. I mix well to ensure the cheeses are evenly distributed.
- I stir in the eggs, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. I mix until the ingredients are well combined, forming a sticky mixture.
- I shape the mixture into small balls, about the size of a golf ball.
- I roll each ball in additional breadcrumbs until well coated, ensuring a crispier exterior once fried.
- I heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large, deep pan to 375°F (190°C). I fry the balls in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan, until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
- I remove the balls with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- I serve the broccoli cheese balls hot with my choice of dipping sauce, such as marinara, ranch, or a spicy aioli.
