Sandwich Ingredients

Tomato Marmaletta Ingredients

Method

Preparation of Tomato Marmaletta

  1. 1

    Cook the Tomatoes

    Chop the ripe tomatoes and place them in a saucepan. Add sugar, olive oil, and salt. Cook over medium heat until the tomatoes break down and the mixture thickens, about 20 minutes. Stir occasionally.

  2. 2

    Blend the Marmaletta

    Once thickened, use an immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth. Let it cool while preparing the sandwiches.

Preparation of Classico in Carrozza

  1. 3

    Prepare the Cheese

    Slice the mozzarella cheese into thick slices. Ensure the slices are not too thin to prevent melting out during frying.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Sandwiches

    Place a slice of mozzarella between two slices of bread. Press down gently to adhere.

  3. 5

    Set Up Breading Station

    In one bowl, beat the eggs. In another bowl, place the flour. In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs mixed with salt and black pepper.

  4. 6

    Bread the Sandwiches

    Dredge each sandwich first in flour, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat in breadcrumbs, ensuring an even coating.

  5. 7

    Fry the Sandwiches

    Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry each sandwich until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 8

    Serve

    Cut the sandwiches in half and serve hot with the tomato marmaletta on the side.
