About this dish

Smažený sýr or vyprážaný syr – both meaning "fried cheese" – is a Czech and Slovak cheese-based dish that is widely consumed in both countries of the former state of Czechoslovakia. It is a common street food in both countries and is popular among students as an inexpensive staple in school canteens. A slice of cheese about 1.5 cm (0.6 in) thick is first breaded with flour, egg, and bread crumbs and then fried either in a pan or deep-fat fryer. It is typically served with tartar sauce or mayonnaise, and is often accompanied by bread and potatoes (fries or boiled potatoes). The cheese most commonly used is Edam; Gouda, Gruyère and Emmental might be used as well (especially in better restaurants).
