5 cups vegetable oil, for frying
1 package (16 ounce size) chopped frozen broccoli, thawed and drained
1 cup boiling water
4 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
3 1/2 cups dry bread crumbs
salt and pepper, to taste

Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F.
Place broccoli in a medium saucepan with the boiling water. Return to a boil. Cook covered until firm but tender, about 5 minutes.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the Cheddar cheese. Mix in the broccoli. Allow the mixture to cool and thicken approximately 15 minutes.
In a medium bowl, mix the bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Spread the mixture onto a large piece of wax paper. Form the broccoli cheese mixture into balls and roll in the bread crumb mixture until thoroughly coated.
Deep fry the balls until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
