Suggest a better descriptionBoil in a wok the following: water, milk, oil and salt. Remove the wok from heat and sift in the Tapioca starch. Add grated cheese into the above mixture and knead well. Allow to cool to room temperature. Add eggs , one at a time, into the mixture and mix well using a wooden spoon. Knead the mixture into a smooth textured dough. Allow the dough sit for 30-45 minutes at room temperature. Shape spoonful of the dough into small balls ( lemon sized) by rolling with hands. Preheat oven to 350F. Place the balls of dough atleast ¼ inch apart on parchment paper or greased baking sheet. The cheese rolls will become twice their original size when done. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Stick in a toothpick/ fruit fork into some the rolls, if it comes out clear the rolls are done. Allow time to cool. Serve warm.
Some Tips:
If using medium sized eggs, then you may want to use 4-5of them. Mixing /kneading by hand gives a far smoother texture to these rolls. Grease your hands/ table spoon with oil before making the balls to prevent sticking. Place the balls well apart from one another to prevent sticking to each other when done. Enjoy with your favorite wine. Add some finely chopped jalapeno to add some spice- if you prefer.
Tapioca flour, tapioca starch, and cassava flour are the same thing by different names.
