Mozzarella Bella Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Preparing the Mozzarella

   Cut the fresh mozzarella cheese into thick slices, about 1 cm each.

2. 2

   Setting Up the Breading Station

   Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   Breading the Cheese

   Take a slice of mozzarella, dip it into the flour, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. Repeat for all slices.

4. 4

   Frying the Cheese

   In a deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded mozzarella slices and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.

5. 5

   Adding Anchovies

   In the last minute of frying, add the anchovy fillets to the skillet to crisp them up slightly.

6. 6

   Draining and Serving

   Remove the fried mozzarella and anchovies from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve immediately.
