Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Cornstarch
- 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 8 ounces Cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or gouda), cut into 1-inch cubes
- 4 cups Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
In a shallow bowl, mix gluten-free flour and cornstarch together. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, combine the gluten-free breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, smoked paprika, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and set aside.
In a third bowl, beat the eggs with 2 tablespoons of water until well combined.
Dip each cheese cube into the flour mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
Then, dip the cheese cube into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
Finally, coat the cheese cube in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to ensure it sticks. Repeat with all cheese cubes.
In a deep frying pan or a heavy-bottomed pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
Carefully add a few cheese cubes at a time into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan.
Fry the cheese cubes for about 1-2 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fried cheese cubes using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
