Ha! What recipe? They're diced potatos that you either deep-fry, or roast in the oven. Nothing to it really.
Every tapas bar should serve Queso frito (Fried Mahon, Tetilla Cheese).
Fried Cheese with Shallot Dressing (Queso Frito AlinAdo con Salsa de Escalona)
Dressing:
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
4 teaspoons minced shallots
2 teaspoons minced parsley
1/2 teaspoons small whole or chopped large capers
Cheese:
1/2 pound fairly mild melting cheese, such as Spanish Tetilla, Mahon, or goat cheese 1/2-inch thick
Flour, for dusting
2 eggs, lightly beaten with 2 teaspoons water
Breadcrumbs
Oil, for frying
In a cup combine the dressing ingredients. Dust the cheese pieces with flour, dip in the egg, then in the crumbs. (May be prepared ahead.) In a skillet heat the oil at least 1/2-inch deep to about 380 degrees F and fry the cheese quickly until golden on both sides. Or, better use a deep-fryer. Drain. Sprinkle the dressing over the cheese and serve immediately.
