i just boil the potatoes in salt water and then i dry bake them on a pan to make them crispy... so it's a little bit less stomach heavy food :) and i spread tartar directly over the fried cheese.
This is already my third comment but I just noticed something. Finns and Slovaks are similar: weirdos who wrap cucumbers in plastic. 🤣 It stops the cucumbers from going dry and all wrinkly during transport and storage.
What happened to your trip planning? Summer is perfect time for these types of videos. Ive been missing your content and cooking is not enough :D (joking)
I agree it's not enough heh, but for the past month I was both busy and fell out of my flow a bit... I don't want to post videos if I can't feel like I can put effort in them....nevertheless, the city series will continue! I'm hoping to record another trip this week or the next and get back on track 😎
I am an American living in Slovakia as well and I've been living here for quite some time, I like the Friend Cheese dish but I have it once in a blue moon.
@@BaronGloryMany things brought me here, but wanting to escape my hometown & California was a huge factor. Honestly I have no regrets. I'll elaborate in a video sometime!
@@nicksterba Wow I didn’t think someone would come all the way from Cali to live in Slovakia 😅Well, as long as you’re happy here, you’re good to go my man. I moved here from Central Florida (Orlando) 😄
@@nicksterba I saw one messy way - puting flour in plastic bag wit a cheese (meat ...) close it and shake it (same with eggwash and crumbs) but never tried this hack
@ 0:13 PEEL THE POTATOES!!! I know the American lazy ways do make it aggressively into our regions - that' the reason I can't order fries and baked potatoes in restaurants without thorough questioning any more, but still... Try it...
Haha your comment made me laugh! I know it's the American way to not peel the potatoes....but I like the potato skins!! I made potatoes the other day with the help of my mom and yes first thing after washing is she had me peel the potatoes 😆
@@nicksterba I personnally do not like the feeling of old paper on my tongue, but "de gustibus"... 🤭 What really bothers me is the fact our restaurants adopted an alien way of preparing food, not because it was better, but because it was more convenient FOR THEM (less work, less waste, maybe some cheap illusion of something modern and "cool"). Do you think they would do the opposite: that they would START peeling potatoes because of foreign customs? Quite a few times I got fries with small sprouts (= health risk BTW), twice even with a piece of clay stuck in a small depression 🤮 I used to say that one day they will stop peeling even the potatoes for the mash. Of course, I meant it as irony. And lo and behold, the other day in a fancy restaurant, certain food critic was presented with mashed potatoes "with beautifully recognized pieces of skins" FFS 😒
@@nicksterba in fact, the most traditional baked potatoes are baked with a skin in ash of campfire (I do it at home in oven on baking paper) , basic style is to ad a bit of salt and bit of butter on each cut while eating. More fancy are kind of cheesy dips / souses (like cheese and chime, or onion ... depends on region and so)
Friend cheese, tartar sauce and Pilsner Urquell is a great combination! My mouth is watering just by the thought of it.
Oh, this looks really delicious 🤤

Super usual I will be happy if you make a video about Slovakian football
Sunflower oil is good in the sense that it can stand high temperatures, but it's not the healthiest for sure.
If you ever get kitchen thermometer, check recommended frying temperature for your combination of oil and food.
I'll have to do that next time! Would make for quicker/better cooking for sure.
@@nicksterba not better, almost burnt, but ... nice try, almost seems like I did my last one XD
I love this dish with boiled potatoes on a side
Wondered what happened to you! wonderful video had this last year when i was in Slovakia
Thank you! More videos coming again, glad you enjoyed your time in Slovakia 😎
I love fried cheese
Teeda, vyzerá fakt dobre :D i keď trochu mastnejšie, treba trochu vypiť olej vreckovkami :D

I thought it was funny too, but it has a practical use! hehe
I don't like wilted cucumbers, so I salt them just before serving.
Looks tasty!😋

What do you think of Vyprážaný Syr? Tasty, too unhealthy, or both?!

@@BaronGlory Great to see another American here! I enjoy it as well but I also don't eat fried food all of the time...stále, to je veľmi chutný!
@@nicksterba What brought you to come live here? Are you planning on staying long term?

I usualy use kitchen paper towel on bottom of bowl/plate for absorbing oil after frying which i throw away afterwards, anyway good choice of side dish
other than that, i ordered fried cheese from restaurant after ive seen part of video :D
I probably should've utilized paper towels to remove some of the grease....good idea!
Wirerack is recommended, fried stuff will get soggy from the bottom, if you leave it on the plate for too long.
Instead of bowls, you should have used plates. It is easier to get the cheese breaded.
I'll keep that in mind next time I make this at home! It was a bit messy 😅
