Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 2 large Eggs
- 60 milliliters Milk
- 2 tablespoons Chives (chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and whisk in the milk until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients (egg and milk mixture) to the dry ingredients and mix until a thick batter forms.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or skillet over medium heat (around 180°C or 350°F).
Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through, flipping them halfway for even frying.
Remove the cooked fritters from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining batter, ensuring that the oil is at the correct temperature before frying each batch.
Serve the cheese fritters warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as they are for a cheesy treat!
