DIRECTIONS
STEP 1
Crumble the cheese into a medium bowl. Add the ricotta, olive oil, tarragon and black pepper.Blend until a smooth paste is obtained.
STEP 2
Scoop out a large tablespoon of it, take an olive and use your hands to form a ball, putting the olive in the middle.
STEP 3
Repeat with the remaining mixture and olives. Leave the balls in a large plate for about 2 hours in the refrigerator.
STEP 4
When ready, beat the eggs in a medium bowl and spread the breadcrumbs on a large plate.
STEP 5
Dip each of the balls first in egg, then roll in breadcrumbs and repeat.
STEP 6
Heat the oil in a deep pan or deep fryer. Fry a few balls at a time, for about 30-60 seconds, until golden brown.
I recommend making it with extra white brine cheese.
