Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 g Camembert cheese
- 100 g Flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 150 g Breadcrumbs
- 1000 ml Vegetable oil
- 100 g Cranberry sauce (optional, for serving)
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Cut your Camembert cheese wheel into equal-sized wedges (about 6-8 pieces depending on the wheel size). Place them in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up.
Prepare three shallow bowls: add flour in the first, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper in the second, and pour breadcrumbs into the third.
Remove the cheese wedges from the freezer and coat each piece in flour, ensuring it is evenly covered. Shake off any excess flour.
Dip each floured wedge into the beaten eggs, coating it completely.
Roll each wedge in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere the coating to all sides. For a super-crispy coating, repeat the egg and breadcrumb steps one more time.
In a deep, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 175°C (350°F). Use a kitchen thermometer to monitor the temperature for best results.
Carefully lower a few wedges into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried cheese from the oil and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Repeat the frying process with the remaining wedges.
Serve the deep-fried Camembert immediately while hot and gooey. Optionally, pair with cranberry sauce for dipping.
