- To make pasta cheese balls, heat the butter in a broad non-stick pan, add the plain flour and sauté on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the milk, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 6 to 7 minutes or till the mixture leaves the sides of the pan and resembles a thick sauce, while stirring continuously using a whisk.
- Transfer the mixture into a deep bowl and keep aside to cool completely.
- Add the pasta, cheese, coriander, celery, green chillies and salt and mix well.
- Divide the mixture into 11 equal portions and shape each portion into small rounds.
- Dip the balls in the plain flour mixture and roll them in bread crumbs till they are evenly coated from all the sides.
- Heat the oil in a deep non-stick kadhai, and deep-fry a few balls at a time on a medium flame, till they turn golden brown in colour from all the sides. Drain on an absorbent paper.
- Serve the pasta cheese balls immediately with tomato ketchup or chilli sauce.
