Preparation Steps
- Cut the mozzarella cheese into uniform sticks, about 3 to 4 inches long. Freeze for 30 minutes.
- Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: first with flour mixed with salt and pepper, second with beaten eggs, and third with breadcrumbs.
- Dredge each cheese stick in flour, dip in the eggs, and roll in breadcrumbs.
- For extra crunch, double coat by dipping in eggs and rolling in breadcrumbs twice.
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat to about 350°F (175°C). Fry cheese sticks until golden brown for 1-2 minutes.
- Remove fried mozzarella sticks and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.
Notes
Serve with marinara sauce for dipping. Best enjoyed hot and fresh.
