I like these cheese sticks because they are crisp and the creamy filling gives them a little kick. A great appetizer. Ingredients:
1 lb monterey jack pepper cheese |
3 cups flour |
3 eggs, beaten |
3 cups crushed corn flakes |
oil, for deep-fat frying |
salsa, if desired |
guacamole, if desired |
Directions:
1. Cut cheese into 2 3/4-inch by 1/2-inch sticks. 2. Place flour, eggs and cornflakes in three separate shallow bowls. Coat cheese sticks with flour, dip in egg, then roll in cornflakes until well coated. Let stand for 5 minutes. 3. In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375 degrees. Cook cheese sticks in batches for 30 seconds or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. 4. Let stand for 3-5 minutes. Serve with salsa and guacamole, if desired. |
