Instructions

  1. Cut the cheese into slices about 1 cm thick, of even shape.
  2. In a deep plate, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a second plate, spread out the flour.
  3. Dip each slice of cheese in the flour, then the egg, and finally in the flour again for a thick, even coating.
  4. Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat and brown the slices for 2 minutes on each side, until a nice golden colour.
  5. Drain on kitchen paper and serve straight away, piping hot, with lemon and salad.

Variations and tips

Herb version. Add a spoonful of dried parsley or oregano to the flour for a more aromatic taste.

With what you can find here. Emmental or young gouda gives very good results in the pan.
