- Chop your peppers, onions, and mushrooms and saute them in a tablespoon or two of oil until everything has been cooked tender.
- In another bowl, mix cream cheese, provolone, sirloin, and vegetables thoroughly
Making Your Balls
- Begin heating your cooking oil is a large pan
- On a floured surface, place a golf ball sized amount of dough and flatten it out into a circle ruffly the size of your palm
- Place a golf ball sized amount of cheese filler into the center of your flattened dough.
- Fold the edges of the dough up around the cheese ball until it is completely covered then roll it around in your hands until everything is fully sealed. Note: If the dough does not seal properly, the cheese will melt out while cooking
