09 Step
Recipe View
Serve the spice balls warm and enjoy!
For an extra touch of flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the dry ingredients.
If you don't have mace, you can substitute with an equal amount of nutmeg.
The dough can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator overnight. Bring to room temperature before frying.
Ensure the oil temperature remains consistent for even cooking. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature.
For a richer flavor, you can use melted butter instead of canola oil in the batter.
These are best served warm, but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat briefly before serving.
