Steps:
- Heat oil in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat.

Steps:
- Cut the cheese into 12 slices (2" x 3", 1/4" thick, approx). Pat dry the cheese with a paper towel to minimize splatters.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat[350 ºF or 175 ºC] in a medium pan, and fry the cheese on one side until it turns golden brown (fry one slice first to see if it fries well, see notes if it doesn't). Turn and repeat. Do not add many slices at the same time as the oil must remain very hot to prevent the cheese from staying in the oil for too long.
- Serve hot.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the crema fresca and the cumin. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Bring the water to a boil and lightly salt it. Add the plantain pieces, and cook until the slices are soft, about 15 minutes. Drain the plantains, let cool, and push them through a ricer. Form the mashed plantains into small golf-ball sized portions. Refrigerate the plantanos until completely chilled and rested, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Line a tortilla press with plastic wrap, and press out each piece of dough. Set aside until all the dough is used.
- Place a small wedge of queso blanco in the center of each plantain circle. Fold the dough around the cheese like an envelope. Roll the package, sealing the edges and making sure the cheese is completely enclosed.
- In a deep saucepot, heat enough oil to deep-fry the plantain packages. When the oil reaches 375 degrees F, fry the plantains until they are golden brown all over, about 2 minutes. Drain the plantains on paper toweling.
- Serve drizzled with the cumin-crema fresca sauce.
QUESO FRITO (FRIED CHEESE)
So good! Not the healthiest of appetizers. But hey! Cheese is a good source of calcium and if you use olive oil for frying that's not as bad as other oils, right? --------* If you have it in your pantry use Spanish smoked paprika if not whatever paprika you have on hand will do. Also use short aged manchego. Manchego that has been aged for over 6 months is better for grating. If you can't find manchego us mozzarella.

WAFFLE IRON "FRIED" CHEESE (QUESO FRITO) RECIPE
Breaded, melty cheese is something that crosses cultures-from deep-fried mozzarella sticks at state fairs to queso frito in Latin America. Inspired by those foods, we've taken squares of cheese are breaded and "fried" them in the waffle iron for just a minute, until their outsides gturnet golden brown and crunchy and their insides become perfectly melted and gooey.
