Ingredients
  • 4 oz package goat cheese
  • 2 beaten eggs
  • 1cup (maybe more) Italian breadcrumbs
  • juice of one lemon
  • olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions
  1. Roll the goat cheese into small balls ( maybe 3/4 of an inch)
  2. Place in freezer for at least 30 min. (longer is better)
  3. Mix together lemon juice, garlic and salt and pepper and whisk continuously while slowly streaming in olive oil. I have never measured how much oil I use, just enough to make a vineagrette like dressing.
  4. Heat 1/2 inch of olive oil in a pan.
  5. Roll frozen goat cheese balls in egg than in breadcrumbs ( sometimes I do it twice for thicker breading)
  6. Fry in olive oil until golden brown and serve over your choice of greens (I always get a pre-made bag of spring mix) Top with dressing.

I have had salads with warm fried goat cheese, and it has always been excellent. I am really looking forward to trying this!


I do something similar to this and serve it with roasted beets. Just before serving, I put some greens on the plate, slice the roasted beets in half and fan one or two of them alongside the greens, add the goat cheese, and then drizzle on the vinagrette. You can kick this up a little more by fanning out half of a roasted beet and half of a ripe avocado. Makes a great salad course for a dinner, or a standalone for lunch or brunch. I also use a little Dijon mustard in the vinagrette, along with the garlic, lemon, salt, and pepper.


I have never heard of such a thing but I am so ready to try it. Thanks for the post. Deserving of a 5 and a flag!


Love this! Nothing better than warm goat cheese... maybe except fried warm goat cheese!
