Method

Burrata Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.

  2. 2

    Stuff the Mozzarella

    Using a knife, carefully make a small slit in each mozzarella ball and fill them with the ricotta mixture.

  3. 3

    Breading the Burrata

    Dredge each stuffed mozzarella ball in flour, dip in beaten egg, and then coat with bread crumbs.

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  2. 5

    Fry the Burrata

    Carefully add the breaded mozzarella balls to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Marinara Sauce Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook the Sauce

    In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add crushed tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 15 minutes.

    Finish the Sauce

    Stir in fresh basil just before serving.

Garlic Bread Preparation

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley.

  2. 9

    Make Garlic Bread

    Slice the French bread in half lengthwise, spread the garlic butter on each half, and toast in the oven until golden.
