Ingredients

Manchego Cheese provided by Iberico Club
2 Large Eggs
2 Teaspoons of Dried Oregano
2 Teaspoons of Paprika
1 Cup of Breadcrumbs
1/2 Cup of All-Purpose Flower
1/2 Cup oil
1/4 Teaspoon of Black Pepper

How to prepare

Begin by cutting the manchego cheese into slices that are not too thick or thin, approximately 1/4" in thickness.
Next, grab 3 separate plates, in these plates we will be adding: 1) Flour. 2) Beaten Eggs with 1 teaspoon of water. 3) Breadcrumbs with Paprika, Oregano and Black Pepper.
With the plates ready, begin the coating, grab the 1/4" slices of Manchego and dip it in the flour, then soak it the egg solution and then coat in the breadcrubs. (Note, make sure the whole cheese is coated, or it will melt out when fried)
Now that you have them coated, place them in the freezer for about 1-hour.
Once an hour has lapsed, take them out and place them in the fryer or frying pan until they are lightly golden.
