Equipment

  • 1 Bowl
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 pan / air fryer
  • 1 freezing bags
  • 1 Grill spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 8 pcs cheese slices/ sticks
  • 2 pcs eggs
  • 3-4 tbsp flour
  • breadcrumbs
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Vegetable oil

Instructions
 

  • First of all, cut the cheese in thick slices or sticks;
    cheese slices
  • Then, crack the eggs into a bowl and make an egg wash using a whisk. Add salt and black pepper
    eggs, salt, pepper ingredients
  • Gently add flour until you create a thick composition. Incorporate the flour with the whisk
  • Place the breadcrumbs into a different bowl
  • Soak the slices/ sticks or cheese into the eggs and flour mixture
  • Make sure the cheese slices/ sticks are completely covered with the mixture
  • Transfer the cheese covered with mixture into the bowl with breadcrumbs and coat the cheese on each side
  • Place each slice/ stick of coated cheese on a plate
    coated cheese prepared for fry
  • Once you finished coating all the slices/ stick of cheese with breadcrumbs, place them into freezing bags
  • Gently release the air from the bags, but make sure the slices/ sticks don’t stick together
  • Place the bag into the freezer for 2 hours
  • After this time, pour vegetable oil into the pan and heat it. I recommend you to use approx. 0.5 cm deep oil in the pan.
    If you want to make air fried cheese sticks / slices, preheat the air fryer at 180℃ (356℉) for 5-10 minutes.
  • Place each slice / stick of cheese into the heated oil and fry it for approx. 3-5 minutes on each side. Make sure to flip the cheese slice using 2 grill spatulas, this way you will not pinch the crust and cause the leaking of the melted cheese.
    If you air fry the cheese slices / sticks, cook them for approx. 3-5 minutes on each side. Depending on the performance of your air fryer, there is a chance that you don’t need to flip the cheese slices.
  • Serve the fried cheese with your favorite side dish or a side salad
