Make your own Cheese Sticks

Getting hungry often? Need snacks while reviewing or working but doesn't have a budget to buy food outside? Well here is a quick and simple recipe to make your own cheese sticks.

Ingredients:

-Block of cheese (eden, quez-o, etc.)

-1 whole Egg (no longer needed if using lumpia wrapper)

-pinch of Salt & Pepper

-pinch of basil (optional)

-1/2 cup breading (either breadcrumbs or flour) or small 20 pcs lumpia wrapper

-oil

**note: the number of breading/lumpia wrapper depends on how many cheese sticks you want to make**

Step 1:

Slice the cheese into julienne style, but not too thin. Make it look like french fries. Be careful to not break them while moving them into places.

Step 2 (only for those who will use breading)

Beat the egg, add a pinch of salt & pepper.

Step 3:

In a different bowl, mix a pinch of salt, pepper and basil (optional) to the breading. If you're using lumpia wrapper, don't add any more salt, pepper and basil, instead prepare a cup of water.

Step 4:

Put the sliced cheese to the beaten egg until it's fully coated, then coat it with breading.

For lumpia wrapper, put the sliced cheese on the lumpia wrapper, then fold both sides going to the middle. Dip your index finger to the cup of water, make the bottom part of the lumpia wrapper damp before rolling it going to the top. Make sure the cheese it fully covered.

Step 5:

Heat the oil until it's making bubbles, then deep fry the cheese sticks.

Tada! There you have it, cheese sticks :D
