Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Brie: In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg with salt and pepper. In another shallow bowl, place the breadcrumbs. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Bread the Brie: Dip each Brie cube into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, transfer it to the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere on all sides. Repeat this process for each cube. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Chill the Brie: Place the breaded Brie cubes on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to allow the coating to firm up. This helps prevent the cheese from melting out during frying. (20 minutes)

04

Step

Heat the Oil: In a deep-fryer or heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the oil to 375°F (190°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accurate temperature. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Fry the Brie: Carefully drop the breaded Brie cubes into the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the fryer. Fry for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and crispy on all sides. (5 minutes per batch)

06

Step

Drain and Serve: Remove the fried Brie with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Serve immediately: Serve warm with cranberry sauce for dipping. Garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary or thyme for an elegant touch. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or dried herbs to the breadcrumbs.
If you don't have cranberry sauce, try using fig jam or a sweet-and-sour chutney as an alternative dipping sauce.
Be careful not to overcook the Brie, as it will melt too much and lose its shape. The goal is a crispy exterior with a warm, gooey center.
To keep the fried Brie warm before serving, place it in a preheated oven at 200°F (95°C) for up to 15 minutes.
