Palline di Boudin

Boudin balls are a specialty of Lousiana. These tasty balls typically consist of boudin sausage meat that is shaped into balls, battered, rolled in breadcrumbs, then fried in hot oil. Boudin sausage is made with cooked rice, onions, green peppers, ground pork, and various seasonings. Although some Louisiana restaurants serve them for breakfast, it is recommended to serve boudin balls as an appetizer while they are still hot and crispy, preferably with a dipping sauce on the side.
