1
Prepare the Mozzarella
Cut the mozzarella cheese block into thick wedges, approximately 1-inch wide.
2
Set Up Breading Station
Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
3
Bread the Mozzarella Wedges
Dredge each mozzarella wedge in flour, then dip it in the egg, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere.
4
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
5
Fry the Wedges
Carefully place the breaded mozzarella wedges into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary, for about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
6
Drain and Serve
Remove the mozzarella wedges from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with marinara sauce on the side.
