Ingredients

Instructions

1. Heat a large fry pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
2. Cut the manchego block into slices 1 cm (a little over 1/4 inch) thick.
3. Put the flour in one bowl. Beat the eggs in another and season with sea salt and black pepper. In a third bowl, mix the panko with the rosemary and a pinch of sea salt.
4. Coat each slice first in flour, then in the egg, then in the panko, making sure each stage covers all sides.
5. Fry the breaded slices in a single layer, in batches, for 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels after each batch.
6. Arrange the fried cheese on a serving dish with strawberry jam for dipping and fresh parsley, and serve at once.
