FRIED BRIE CHEESE

Category: Deep Fried

9 oz Brie cheese
1 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 egg, well beaten
1/2 cup bread crumbs
Dash cayenne pepper
3 cup oil for frying
1/2 cup tomato sauce

Cut the cheese into 8 even-sized wedges. Sprinkle with cayenne pepper. Dust with flour and dip in beaten egg, coat well. Let drain then roll in bread crumbs.

Make sure all surfaces are coated well. Shake off excess bread crumbs and heat oil to 325 degrees F. Make sure oil is deep enough to cover cheese or it will not cook evenly. Brown cheese then drain on paper towels. Arrange fried cheese on plates and garnish with fruits such as grapes, strawberries or melon. Dip cheese in tomato sauce.
