- 100 g bread (~ 2 medium slices)
- 1 large carrot, grated (~ 185g / ~ 6 1/2 oz)
- 100 g cheddar cheese, grated (~ 1 cup when grated)
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- Salt
- Black pepper
- 2 eggs
- Oil, for greasing the tray
Use a food processor to blitz the bread into breadcrumbs (or just crumble it finely if you don't have a food processor).
Add the breadcrumbs to a mixing bowl, along with the grated carrot and grated cheese. Mix to combine.
Add the remaining ingredients (apart from the oil), and mix thoroughly.
Use clean hands to shape the mixture into balls - I ended up with 15 balls in total. Place them on a well oiled baking tray, and bake at 190°C (Gas Mark 5 / 375°F) for around 30 minutes, or until crispy and slightly browned.
