A fabulous Manchego cheese appetizer for a cocktail party, or even a dinner party.
Ingredients
- 1 jalapeno chile, seeded, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 12 ounces Manchego cheese, cut into two wedges
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cold water
- ¼ cup crushed ice
- vegetable oil for deep frying, or as needed
Directions
Step 1
Combine jalapeno and cilantro together in a bowl. Coat both Manchego cheese wedges with the mixture.
Step 2
Mix all-purpose flour, water, and crushed ice together in a bowl until there are no lumps in the flour. Dip cheese wedges into the batter.
Step 3
Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Dip cheese wedges into hot oil and fry until batter is crispy and browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer fried cheese to paper towels layered on a plate to drain excess oil.
Editor’s Note:
We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. The exact amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.
