Ingredients

approx 450 g Brick Cheese (Eidam)
4 slices about 1 cm thick
Breadcrumbs
as needed
2 pcs Egg
All-purpose flour
as needed
Sunflower Oil
for frying
Potatoes
as desired for side dish

Instructions

For our classic fried cheese, we will use Edam cheese with at least 40% fat. This is to prevent it from melting too much. We can also use Gouda cheese. In my opinion, it has a nuttier taste.

Lightly beat the eggs with a pinch of salt in a deep plate. In a separate plate, have breadcrumbs ready, and in a third plate, have smooth flour. Now we are ready for the three-step breading process. Coat the cheese slice in smooth flour, then in eggs, again in flour, eggs, and finally in breadcrumbs.

Place the breaded cheeses in hot oil and fry until golden brown. Not too long, about 2 minutes. Serve with your favorite side dish. For example, fries, croquettes, mashed potatoes, and mayonnaise. Enjoy!
