Method
Instructions for Cheese Fritters
Prepare the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheese, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Add Wet Ingredients
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter should be thick.
Heat the Oil
In a deep pan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Fritters
Using a spoon or small scoop, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown on both sides. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Serve
Serve the cheese fritters warm with your choice of dipping sauce.
