Fritters with cheese and garlic butter, a delicious savory fritter. The melts when baking the fritters, and therefore gives it a crispy cheese flavor. The garlic butter melts on the hot fritters and gives a full, creamy flavor.
The kids love to eat once in a while something different from lunch (usually we eat bread). Pancakes, omelet, toast, and sandwich special, it's all on our lunch menu. And of course, fritters. Because what could be more Dutch as a fritter. At least in my experience.
Fritters and cheese: true Dutch foods!
But cheese is also very Dutch. Can those two be combined in a very good lunch dish, with a lick of garlic butter for the finishing touch? And indeed, it was a hit. The bowl was empty, the pancakes were gone. They can go back to school with full bellies after lunch break is over.
