EDAM CHEESE FRITTERS

One of my favourite vegetarian meals. Quick and easy to make, can be made in advance and grilled as and when required. Also ideal when having a BBQ with vegetarian guests attending. This recipe was originally sourced from a book I found in the library by Rose Elliot.

Time 35m

Yield 12 pieces, 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

600 ml milk
1 small onion
2 whole cloves
1 bay leaf
125 g semolina
100 g edam cheese, grated
1/2-1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 egg
dry breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Bring the milk to almost boiling point with onion, bay leaf and cloves.
  • Cover and allow to cool.
  • Remove Onion, bay leaf and cloves.
  • Bring back to boiling point.
  • Add semolina and stir over a medium / gentle heat until the mixture becomes stiff and difficult to stir.
  • Remove from heat and stir in cheese and mustard.
  • Pour into a greased dish and spread out to a thickness of about 1 - 1 and 1/2 cm.
  • Allow to cool.
  • Cut into squares. I find that it makes 12 squares.
  • Dip into beaten egg and then roll in breadcrumbs.
  • Fry gently in a good quality oil. I prefer Virgin Olive Oil.
  • Serve with a fresh green salad and mashed potatoes and tomato sauce or ketchup.
  • NB: The quantity of cheese can be adjusted. Reducing the amount of cheese and adding a couple of tbsps of Parmesan works well.

EDAM CHEESE SOUP

I got this recipe when I bought some Reny Picot brand edam cheese. It's a very mild cheese and tastes VERY similar to cheddar with only a hint of an aged taste. If you like cheddar cheese, you'll like this cheese too. If you've never worked with leeks before, they look like big green onions. You want only the green parts so start cutting near the top of the white. I cut them just like I would green onions.

CHEESE FRITTERS

I learnt to make these at college, and have been making them ever since. They are perfect for drinks nibbles, or as part of a larger snack buffet. I use them for footie snacks with lots of dips-the only complaint I get is that I never make enough!! Servings are approximations, as it depends on the size you make them.
