Slovak Comfort Food


We have a new friend staying with us for a bit.  He is from Slovakia and he decided to make me a traditional Slovak comfort food: fried cheese and boiled potatoes, along with a sliced tomato and special mayo.

It was cute to watch him prepare the cheese, breading it and frying it.  We can't get the correct kind of cheese in the States, so he has substituted edam.  And as for the special mayo: it has eggs, oil, onions and pickles and lemon juice-- or, really, tarter sauce.

It was quite delicious and he promises to make it again, because everyone needs to be eating more fried cheese...
