Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 portions washed salad greens like mesclun tossed with vinaigrette or 2 Granny Smith apples, cored and cut into wafer thin rounds
Vegetable oil for frying
1/4 cup flour
1 egg lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups fresh white bread crumbs
Eight 1 1/2 round 1/2-inch thick disks of fresh goat's cheese

Steps:

  • Prepare dinner plates with a bed of dressed mesclun salad or apple slices.
  • In a deep pot, slowly heat to 350 degrees enough vegetable oil to completely submerge the disks when deep fried. While this is heating up, set flour, egg and bread crumbs in a 3 separate shallow plates; dip each disk of cheese in flour, then in beaten egg and finally in fresh bread crumbs, making sure breading completely adheres to all surfaces leaving no cheese exposed.
  • With a slotted spoon or skimmer, lower the breaded cheese into the oil. Do not overcrowd or the temperature of the oil will be lowered considerably and the cheese will be greasy. Fry for 45 seconds only or until the crust is deep golden brown. Briefly drain on absorbent towels and serve immediately on garnished plates.
  • Variations: you can marinate the goats' cheese first in a mixture of olive oil, crushed black peppercorns, herbs and garlic. Pat dry before breading.
  • Mix some ground pecans or walnuts with bread crumbs.
  • Before breading, sandwich an anchovy fillet or chopped canned green chilis between two 1/4inch rounds of mozzarella.

GOAT CHEESE AND FIG QUICK BREAD



Goat Cheese and Fig Quick Bread image

Here's a recipe from France, where savory loaf cakes are often served with drinks before dinner. This one started with bits of goat cheese and snips of dried figs, and then moved closer and closer to the Mediterranean. It's got fruity olive oil, a handful of parsley (for brightness), a little rosemary and thyme (to set the mood and further establish the locale), some honey (always good with goat cheese) and scrapings of clementine zest (for surprise). You can use a neutral oil, if you'd like, olive or dried tomatoes instead of figs, basil instead of parsley, lemon instead of orange, or experiment with other cheeses. The loaf's pleasantly crumbly, and best enjoyed cut into thick slices.

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Nonstick cooking spray or butter
4 ounces/115 grams very cold soft goat cheese
4 moist, plump dried figs (such as Kalamata), cut into 1/4-inch bits
1/3 cup/20 grams finely chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
1 3/4 cups/225 grams all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1/3 cup/80 milliliters whole milk, lukewarm
1/3 cup/80 milliliters olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 clementine or 1/2 tangerine

Steps:

  • Center a rack in the oven and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat an 8- to 9-inch loaf pan with baking spray (or butter the pan).
  • Cut the goat cheese into 1/2-inch pieces. It's a sticky, messy job, so don't aim for perfection. Refrigerate the cheese until needed.
  • In a small bowl, toss together the figs, parsley, rosemary and thyme; keep at hand.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. Working in a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until blended, then whisk in the milk, oil and honey.
  • Pour the wet ingredients over the flour mixture, and, using a sturdy spatula, stir until the dough is almost blended. You'll still see streaks of flour, and that's fine. Scatter the fig mixture over the dough, and then cover with the chilled bits of goat cheese. Grate the zest of the clementine or tangerine over the cheese. Using as few strokes as possible, stir everything together. Once again, it might not be perfect, and, once again, that's fine. Scrape the dough into the pan, and use the spatula to poke the dough into the corners and to even the bumpy top.
  • Bake for 34 to 38 minutes or until the top is golden, the cake has started to pull away from the sides of the pan, and, most important, a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Unmold the cake onto a rack, turn it right side up and let it cool. You can serve the cake when it's slightly warm (it's not so easy to cut then, but it's delicious) or when it is at room temperature. Cut into thick slices. Wrapped well, the cake will keep for a day or two at room temperature.

BAKED GOAT'S CHEESE WITH HAZELNUT CRUST & BALSAMIC ONIONS



Baked goat's cheese with hazelnut crust & balsamic onions image

This simple breaded cheese can be made ahead and frozen, ready to use as a starter for a dinner party with friends

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Starter

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 x 100g goat's cheese (we used Capricorn)
50g hazelnuts , chopped
25g breadcrumbs
2 eggs , beaten
red chicory leaves, rocket and watercress , to serve
3 tbsp olive oil
3 red onions , halved and thinly sliced
4 tbsp balsamic vinegar
4 tbsp mild-flavoured clear honey

Steps:

  • Halve the goat's cheeses horizontally and mix the nuts with the crumbs. Coat the cheese in the egg, then the nut mixture. Mark the cut side of the cheese with a large piece of nut to show which side up it should be.
  • For the onions, heat the oil in a non-stick pan, then add the onions. Stir well and cook for 10 mins until softened and starting to turn golden. Tip in the balsamic vinegar and honey, season and stir over the heat until syrupy. If freezing, open-freeze the cheeses until solid, then wrap individually with cling film and foil. Pack the onions into a freezer bag once cool. To defrost, thaw the onions and warm gently in a pan.
  • To cook and serve, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the cheese on a sheet of baking parchment on a baking tray and bake for 20 mins. If you're baking from frozen, add another 5 mins.
  • Arrange the salad leaves on plates and spoon the onions on top. Add the goat's cheese, drizzle with any juice from the onions and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right goat cheese: A firm, creamy goat cheese that can hold its shape well during frying is ideal. Avoid soft, spreadable goat cheese, as it will melt easily and not hold its shape.
  • Use a light coating of flour: Before dredging the goat cheese in breadcrumbs, coat it lightly in flour. This will help the breadcrumbs adhere better to the cheese.
  • Use a mixture of breadcrumbs: For a crispy, flavorful coating, use a mixture of panko breadcrumbs and regular breadcrumbs. Panko breadcrumbs are lighter and flakier than regular breadcrumbs, which gives the goat cheese a nice texture.
  • Season the breadcrumbs: Before coating the goat cheese in breadcrumbs, season them with salt, pepper, and any other desired herbs or spices. This will add flavor to the coating and help it stick to the cheese.
  • Fry the goat cheese at a moderate temperature: To prevent the goat cheese from burning, fry it at a moderate temperature of around 350°F (175°C). Fry the goat cheese until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside, but still warm and melted on the inside.
  • Serve the goat cheese immediately: Breaded goat cheese is best served immediately after frying, while it is still warm and crispy. You can serve it with a variety of dipping sauces, such as marinara sauce, pesto, or honey.

Conclusion:

Breaded goat cheese is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack that can be prepared in a variety of ways. By following the tips above, you can make breaded goat cheese that is crispy, flavorful, and sure to impress your friends and family. Whether you serve it with a dipping sauce or on its own, breaded goat cheese is a crowd-pleaser that is perfect for any occasion.
