Cooking method

Cooking time: 2 h

1. Cut brie cheese into wedges and put it in the freezer for half an hour.

2. In the bowl of a blender or food processor, mix nuts (you can take a mix to taste), sesame seeds, finely chopped thyme and salt, chop. After that, we spread the mixture on a flat plate.

3. In a separate container, break the egg, mix a little with a whisk. Then pour the egg with cream and whisk everything together. It is not necessary to use the technique - it will be enough to beat the mixture by hand.

4. Remove the cheese from the freezer and breaded: first, dip the pieces into the beaten egg and cream mixture, then roll in the nut mixture. We roll it carefully, pressing a little. You should get a fairly thick crust of nuts and sesame seeds.

5. We put the panicked pieces of cheese in a plastic container, then close it with a lid and put it in the refrigerator for at least one hour. But it is better to remove it for a longer time, but not more than six hours. It is very convenient to prepare a dish in advance, for example, to make blanks in the morning, and in the evening, when guests come, quickly fry the cheese.

6. When the blanks are well cooled, we take the container out of the refrigerator and proceed to frying. To do this , pour vegetable oil into a frying pan with a thick bottom - it should be 2.5 cm from the bottom . We put it on medium heat and heat the pan well.

7. When the oil boils, we begin to fry the cheese in batches. Fry it on both sides until well browned and golden brown. We spread the fried pieces on paper towels so that excess oil is absorbed.

8. We serve the fried cheese to the table immediately, while it is still warm.

Bon appetit!
