Instructions
Place the flour into a freezer bag.
Place the panko crumbs into a separate freezer bag.
Add the egg to a bowl and whisk.
Cut the camembert into 8 wedges.
Put two pieces of camembert into the flour. Hold the bag closed and shake to cover the cheese.
Remove the cheese from the bag and tap them to remove excess flour.
Drop the two pieces of cheese into the egg and coat with the mixture.
Remove the cheese from the egg and drop them into the panko crumbs. Ensure the cheese is well covered by the crumb.
Remove the cheese from the crumb.
Repeat until all the cheese is crumbed.
Place the crumbed camembert in a ziplock bag and place in the freezer until needed. I like to fry my camembert when it's frozen.
To Cook the Camembert
Heat the oil to 180 degrees celsius.
Drop a crumb in the oil to test readiness.
Cook the camembert until golden brown and floating.
Drain the camembert on absorbency paper and then serve with the Tuckers Natural Spiced Cherry Fruit Paste.
Optional Salad
Arrange four serving plates with the rocket.
Add the cucumber and avocado to the plate.
Arrange two wedges of the deep fried camembert on top of each of the salad.
Sprinkle the plates with the craisins and walnuts.
Dressing
Combine all the dressing ingredients in a small jar.
Shake the jar until the dressing is combined.
Pour the dressing over the salad.
