Method

Coat cheese slices in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs. Repeat the egg and breadcrumb coating.

Refrigerate 30 minutes — the double coating prevents the cheese leaking.

Fry in hot oil 3-4 minutes each side until golden. Serve immediately with tartare sauce.

Chef's Tip

Double coat the cheese — two layers of breadcrumb creates a seal so the cheese doesn't leak.
