Ingredients

Scale

For the Rice Mixture:

  • 2 cups cooked white rice, cooled
  • 1/2 pound cooked crawfish tails, chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning

For the Coating:

  • 2 cups crushed Voodoo chips (or any spicy-flavored chips)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

  • Prepare the Rice Mixture:
    • In a large bowl, combine the cooled rice, chopped crawfish tails, shredded mozzarella, chopped green onions, and Cajun seasoning. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  • Form the Balls:
    • Using your hands, shape the rice mixture into balls, about the size of a golf ball. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
    • Once all balls are formed, place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 20 minutes to firm up.
  • Prepare the Coating:
    • Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with crushed Voodoo chips.
  • Coat the Balls:
    • Remove the rice balls from the freezer.
    • Dredge each ball in flour, shaking off excess.
    • Dip into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off.
    • Roll in crushed Voodoo chips, pressing gently to adhere.
  • Fry the Balls:
    • In a deep fryer or large pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C).
    • Fry the coated balls in batches, avoiding overcrowding, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
    • Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried balls to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  • Serve:
    • Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce, such as remoulade or spicy mayo.

Notes

  • Ensure the rice is completely cooled before mixing to prevent the balls from falling apart.
  • If Voodoo chips are unavailable, substitute with any spicy-flavored chips or seasoned breadcrumbs.
  • For a milder version, adjust the amount of Cajun seasoning and choose a less spicy chip variety.
