Cheese fingers are an excellent crunchy snack, combining rich cheese and a crispy coating. Kids like them, and grown-ups enjoy them as much. These cheesy, golden-brown sticks are perfect for any occasion and great as an appetiser for any party, gathering, or speedy indulgent treat. Here is how simple it is to make this recipe: just a few simple ingredients to create a deliciously crispy exterior and gooey, cheesy interior of the cheese fingers. The cheese fingers are also thinly cut finger-like strips from blocks of mozzarella or cheddar. Dipping the coated cheese in the seasoning flour mixture of all-purpose flour and cornflour makes it lighter and crispier. Oregano, chilli flakes, and black pepper are added to bring flavour and depth to the batter. Once the cheese fingers are coated in breadcrumbs, they get this beautiful golden, crunchy crust when fried or baked. The cheese fingers recipe is quite versatile. You can change the types of cheese, add finely chopped herbs or garlic into the batter for extra flavour, etcetera. Cheese fingers may be deep-fried if you need that guilty pleasure or baked for something a little less decadent. Serve cheese fingers hot. Accompany the creamy richness with dips such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or spicy chutney. The molten cheese, paired with crunchy, crispy exteriors, makes cheese fingers one of the go-to snacks that will surely please anyone who loves cheese!

• 6 tbsp cheese
• 6 bread slices
• 6 tsp butter
• 1/4 tsp mustard powder
• 1/4 tsp red chilli powder

• Try out this incredible recipe of Cheese fingers, the ultimate no-fuss snack that combines gooey melted cheese with crispy, golden bread for a bite of pure indulgence.
• To make this easy yet crowd-pleasing treat, grab six slices of white bread.
• While any bread works, white bread is ideal because it crisps up perfectly when toasted.
• Spread a teaspoon of butter evenly over each slice, making sure the bread is completely coated for that buttery crunch.
• Sprinkle a quarter teaspoon of mustard powder over the buttered slices for a tangy kick—just enough to cut through the richness of the cheese.
• If you like it extra spicy, add a pinch more.
• For a hint of warmth and color, dust the slices with a quarter teaspoon of chili powder.
• Adjust the spice level to your liking; it's all about finding that balance between creamy and zesty.
• Now comes the star of the show—cheese!
• Generously sprinkle six tablespoons of grated processed cheese evenly across the slices.
• Whether it's cheddar for sharpness or mozzarella for that signature melt, use your favorite cheese or mix it up for added flavour.
• Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and place the prepared bread slices, butter-side down, on the pan.
• Press gently with a spatula to ensure even toasting.
• When the bottoms are golden and crispy, carefully flip the slices to toast the cheese side for a minute or two, just until the cheese melts into a bubbly, golden layer.
• Once done, remove the slices from the pan and let them cool slightly—just enough so you can handle them without melting your fingers.
• Slice each piece into finger-shaped strips.
• Serve these cheesy delights warm with your favorite dip—think ketchup, garlic aioli, or a tangy green chutney.
• Cheese fingers are best enjoyed fresh out of the pan, with the cheese still gooey and the bread crisp.
