prepare crunchy and crisp rice ball snacks. This recipe called Cheesy Rice
balls which are deep fried snack and prepared with rice, onion, cheese and
spices. It’s really superb and easy to make. This is a perfect meal which you
can give your child in lunchbox or when comes back from school or play ground
