Recipe View Add the beaten eggs and milk to the dry ingredients. Whisk until a smooth batter forms. If the batter seems too thick, gradually add a tablespoon of milk at a time until it reaches a consistency that easily coats the cheese curds. (3 minutes)

03 Step

Recipe View Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. The oil should reach a temperature of 350-375°F (175-190°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accuracy. (5-7 minutes)

Recipe View Gently drop the cheese curds, a few at a time, into the hot oil. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the oil temperature. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Fry the cheese curds for approximately 1 minute each, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and puffed up. Be careful not to overcook, as the cheese will melt out. (3-5 minutes per batch)

Recipe View Serve immediately and enjoy the cheesy goodness!

For an extra crispy coating, try double-dipping the cheese curds in the batter before frying.
Experiment with adding seasonings to the batter, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch dressing, marinara sauce, or a spicy aioli.
Ensure your oil is at the correct temperature for optimal frying. If it's too low, the curds will absorb too much oil; if it's too high, they'll burn quickly.
Room temperature cheese curds are important to reach the best flavor profile. If the curds are too cold, the inside might not be properly melted.
