For 4 serving

Ingredients

4 thick slices of hard cheese (e.g., Edam)
3 eggs
3 tablespoons milk
6 tablespoons plain flour
6 tablespoons breadcrumbs
50 g grated cheese
a pinch of salt
a pinch of pepper
oil for frying

Preparation procedure

Batter preparation: Beat the eggs in a bowl with the milk, a pinch of salt and pepper.
Coating the cheese: Coat the slices of cheese first in flour, then in the egg mixture and finally thoroughly in breadcrumbs. For a crispier result you can repeat the coating (double coating).
Frying: Heat a sufficient amount of oil in a pan. Fry the cheese on both sides until golden. Make sure the oil is hot enough – this will prevent the cheese from melting and spreading.
Finishing: Place the fried cheese on paper towels to remove excess fat. Immediately after removing from the pan, sprinkle with grated cheese, which will melt from the heat and create a delicious layer.
Serving: Serve with a side dish to taste – homemade fries, boiled potatoes or a fresh vegetable salad are excellent choices.
