Method

1. Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C). 2. Put the tapioca flour in a large bowl. 3. Bring milk, water, oil, and salt just to a boil. 4. Pour over the flour and stir into a sticky dough. 5. Cool for 5 minutes. 6. Mix in the egg. 7. Add both cheeses and mix well. 8. Roll into 1 inch balls with lightly oiled hands. 9. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until puffed and lightly golden. 10. Serve warm.

SCHNAX TIP

Lightly oil your hands because the dough is naturally sticky.
