Fried Edam with Tartar Sauce


By Frugal Wannabe Cooks (Visit website)



Growing up in Slovakia one of my favorite childhood dishes was Fried Edam Cheese with homemade Tartar Sauce and Mashed Potatoes.

I remember every restaurant in Slovakia had this dish on their menu. 

Some restaurants offered just plain Fried Edam which was 1 thick piece of Edam dipped in egg batter and deep fried. Some offered Shepard's Style Fried Edam which was piece of ham between two pieces of Edam dipped in egg batter and fried.


Either way it was delicious. The oovey gooey cheese all melted and delicious.

Even today most Slovak restaurants have this delicious dish on their menu.

My dad used to make Fried Edam his own way. Instead of dipping the cheese in egg batter he breaded it with egg, flour and breadcrumbs just like schnitzels.

I always liked my dad's way and ever since I can remember I've been breading my Fried Edam for my family.

I don't make this dish very often for health reasons, but when I do everybody comes for dinner.

I serve it with mashed potatoes, homemade Tartar sauce and Cucumber salad.


Ingredients:

Edam Cheese (3/4" per slice)Flour1 Egg 1/2 cup Milk BreadcrumbsOil

Cut Edam into 3/4" slices. In a shallow bowl beat the egg with milk. Put some flour into second bowl and breadcrumbs into third bowl.


Drench Edam slices in flour, dip in the egg and cover with breadcrumbs. Place the breaded cheese into a fridge for 20-30 minutes to harden.


In a skillet heat the oil on high. Oil should be about 1" deep. 

When the oil is hot enough put the breaded Edam into the skillet. Fry on both sides till golden brown about 2 minutes on each side.

After taking them out of the oil place them into a pan lined with paper towels to absorb the extra grease.

Serve hot.

Tip: I like to cut the cheese into half before breading it to make little fingers for my kids.
