Smažený sýr (Czech pronunciation: [ˈsmaʒɛniː ˈsiːr]) or vyprážaný syr (Slovak pronunciation: [ˈʋipraːʐaniː ˈsir]) – both meaning "fried cheese" – is a Czech and Slovak cheese-based dish[1] that is widely consumed in both countries of the former state of Czechoslovakia.

It is a common street food in both countries[1] and is popular among students as an inexpensive staple in school canteens.

The dish may also be prepared with a thin slice of ham inserted between two slices of cheese; in Czech fast food outlets, it is often served in the form of a sandwich – in something similar to a hamburger bun.
