Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir the flour through the butter. Pour the milk into the pan with small bits at the same time and whisk with a whisk until smooth. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes with constant stirring.
Remove the pan from the heat source and stir in the grated cheese through the sauce. Season the sauce with pepper and nutmeg.
Pour the sauce into a large deep plate or dish and allow to cool. Cut the solid mixture into cubes and make balls with the help of two spoons.
Beat in a deep plate the protein with 1 tablespoon of water. Fill a second deep plate with breadcrumbs.
Roll the balls first through breadcrumbs, then through the beaten egg whites and finally once again through breadcrumbs.
Fry the balls in oil of 180 ° C in a few minutes until light brown and crispy. Bake a few balls at a time. Remove them from the oil and let them drain on kitchen paper.
