Cook the basmati rice according to the instructions. Mix the sesame seeds together in a bowl and set aside. While the rice is still hot, mix it with the remaining ingredients; it should be slightly sticky and the cheese should already be melting slightly. Form the mixture into balls with your hands and roll them in the sesame seeds. Either fry in a pan with plenty of rapeseed oil or place in an air fryer at 200°C for 20 minutes. This can also be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Serve with a sweet and spicy sauce.
