Deep Fried Cheesy Taro Balls 台式炸起司芋头酥

This is another version of taro balls that I am working with, unlike the common taro ball called "wu kok'. 'Wu kok' has 5 spice aroma and with the hairy outstanding crust and savory fillings. But this version of taro ball is in a very clean flavour, which is sweet and salty and cheesy at the same time. Kind of melting you away..... haha...... Please read on for more.
