Bosnian Fried Cheese - Bosnia and Herzegovina traditional dish

🧂 재료

400 g Firm white cheese (like Kashkaval, Trappist, or a firm local cheese)(cut into 1-1.5 cm thick slices)
100 g All-purpose flour
2 large Eggs
150 g Breadcrumbs
as needed ml Vegetable oil(for frying)
to taste Salt
to taste Black pepper
for serving Ajvar or cranberry sauce

👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Prepare three shallow dishes: one with flour seasoned with salt and pepper, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.
2
Dredge each slice of cheese first in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.
3
Dip the floured cheese slice into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully coated.
4
Finally, coat the cheese slice generously with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
5
Repeat the egg and breadcrumb coating for a thicker crust, if desired.
6
Heat about 1-2 cm of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
7
Carefully place the breaded cheese slices into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
8
Fry for about 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. The cheese should be softened but not completely melted out.
9
Remove the fried cheese from the pan and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
10
Serve immediately with ajvar or cranberry sauce on the side.

💡 전문가 팁

✓Using a firm cheese that doesn't melt too quickly is crucial.
✓Double-coating in egg and breadcrumbs creates a sturdier crust.
✓Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve a crispy exterior without the cheese oozing out.
