Instructions
Prepare the Cheese
- 1Set up three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.
- 2Dredge each cube of edam cheese first in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs.
- 3Place the coated cheese cubes on a plate and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to help the coating set.
Fry the Cheese
- 1Heat about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 2Carefully add the cheese cubes in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- 3Remove the fried cheese bites with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Make the Glaze and Toss
- 1In a small bowl, whisk together sriracha, lime juice, honey, and garlic powder until well combined.
- 2In a clean bowl, gently toss the warm fried cheese bites with the sriracha-lime glaze until evenly coated.
- 3Transfer the glazed cheese bites to a serving platter and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.

Tips
- Ensure the cheese cubes are well-chilled before breading for better adhesion of the coating.
- Maintain the oil temperature between 325°F and 365°F (160°C-185°C) for perfectly crispy, non-greasy cheese bites.
- Serve immediately for the best texture, as the cheese will start to melt and ooze if left too long.
