  1. Prepare the coating

    In a bowl, mix flour and steak spices. In another bowl, beat eggs with milk. Place panko in a third bowl.

    Use homemade steak spices for a personalized taste.

  2. Coat the cheese

    Dip cheese curds in flour, then egg mixture, and finally panko breadcrumbs. Ensure they are well-coated.

    Do small batches to prevent sticking together.

  3. Fry

    Heat oil to 180°C. Fry the curds in small batches until golden, about 2-3 minutes.

    Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
