Fried Goat Cheese

One of my favorite reality shows follows a group who works at a restaurant, and on the show they always talk about how amazing the goat cheese balls are, so I wanted to have my own little recipe to make at home.

Ingredients
2 cups of mini pretzels
2 large eggs
1/2 cup of all purpose flour
8 ounces of goat cheese
Olive oil for frying

Directions

Grind pretzels in a food processor.
Place pretzels, eggs and flour in separate bowls.
In the egg bowl, whisk together with 2 tbs of water.
Cut goat cheese into 8 different logs.
Grab one slice and dredge in the flour, shaking off excess.
Dip in egg wash and then coat in pretzels.
In a skillet, heat 1/2 inch of olive oil over medium heat.
Fry slices for 45 seconds a side, until golden brown. Only 4 at a time.
Remove and let them drain on towel.

Changes I Made!
None, I love it as is.

Curry, from Audrey

This may be a surprise, but as a small town Midwest girl, I did not grow up eating curry. I don't think I ever even tried curry, until I moved to Iowa and worked a woman who lived in New York City for decades. I was just learning how to cook, and I wanted other dishes to try and make. I asked her what I should learn how to make and without hesitating, she said curry. So I went online to try and find a recipe, and did not care for it. After looking at the recipe I realized it was because it had the cursed ingredient of peas in it, so I've been on a mission to find a pea less curry I like, and I found 2 recipes I wanted to try, and this is the first one I gave a shot. Ingredients 1 chicken breast 1 cup of flour 2 tbs of olive oil 1 cup of chicken broth 1 tps of mild curry 1 tps of strong curry 1 carrot, peeled and diced ...
