Sriracha lime chickpeas

Recently I have been craving chick peas and gobbling the Wasabi chickpeas. I can't make the wasabi chickpeas at home because I do not have the wasabi but I just got a new bottle of Sriracha sauce and so I made the Sriracha Lime Chickpeas. The main reason here is I can control the heat. The chickpeas I get from the super markets are not spicy enough for me

Ingredients:
  1. 1  can of chickpeas, rinsed well and drained
  2. 1 tablespoon sriracha
  3. 1 tsp each of olive oil, garlic powder (optional), corn startch
  4. 2 tablespoons lime juice
  5. 1/2 tsp sea salt
Rinse the chickpeas and dry them and try to remove the skin by lightly rubbing them between your fingers or between paper towels .
Pre heat oven to 450 degrees

Mix all the ingredients together and add the chickpeas and mix well. On a baking sheet spray some cooking oil and layer the chick peas into one layer and bake for 20-25 minute. Let cool to room temperature and enjoy with friends

Cheese Corn balls

I was surfing on the web and I found this random post about corn cheese balls and they looked so super delicious that I had to try them. And I had that page open on my phone for the longest of times and finally I got a chance to make it. but ofcourse I had to change the whole recipe and make it my own.

And here is the recipe for corn cheese balls

Ingredients:

  1. 1/2 can creamed corn
  2. 1/2 cup Mexican cheese blend
  3. 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  4. 1 tablespoon corn starch
  5. 1/2 teaspoon each salt, fresh ground black pepper.
  6. 1 cup bread crumbs or upma ravva
  7. Oil for deep frying
Mix all the ingredients except the bread crumbs/upma ravva. Make into gold ball sized balls. Heat the oil in a pan. Roll the balls in bread crumbs or upma ravva and fry till golden brown. Drain and serve with ketchup. 
Don't serve them immediately. Let them cool a bit and serve else the cheese is very hot and the kids will burn themselves
