Directions:
In a medium saucepan boil the water. Add salt, sugar, and corn meal and stir until it forms a soft ball that separates from the sides of the pot.

Remove from heat. Add the cheese and stir. Cover with clean dishcloth and wait 5 minutes or so.

Then form the sorullitos by scooping about a heaping teaspoon, forming a ball first, then rolling on your hand into a sorullito. Fry in plenty of oil.
