this is yummy dish. I cooked a vegetarian version with black beans, cheese, onions, and peppers. It was. delicious. If you dont have the ability to deep fry them then it is best to just use enough oil to cover the bottom of frying pan, smash the balls into little pucks and pan fry. I found that if not completely submerged in oil when deep frying when you try to flip them they fall apart. so I removed most of the oil and pan fried with much success. I live on a boat and deep frying is not advised. waves and boiling oil, hmmmm. ;-)
