Instructions

1 ✓

Cut cheese into 1/2 inch slices. Freeze 10 mins before breading.

Tip: Cold cheese takes longer to melt, allowing crust to cook.
2 ✓

Double Bread: Flour -> Egg -> Crumbs -> Egg -> Crumbs.

Tip: Double coating is essential for structural integrity.
3 ✓

Press breaded cheese firmly.

Tip: Removes air bubbles that could burst coating.
4 ✓

Fry in hot oil (350°F) quickly until golden.

Tip: If oil cools, crust absorbs grease and bursts.
5 ✓

Serve immediately.

Tip: Cheese hardens as it cools.

Recipe FAQ

Why did cheese leak?
Single breading (cracked) or oil too cool. If slow cooking, cheese melts before crust sets.
Which cheese?
Semi-hard (Edam, Gouda, Trappist). Hard doesn't melt, soft flows too fast.

  • 1 lb Semi-hard Cheese block (Edam/Gouda)
  • 1 cup Flour
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 2 cups Breadcrumbs
