Method
Cheese Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Cheese
Take the mozzarella sticks out of the packaging and set them aside. For best results, freeze them for about 30 minutes to firm up before breading.
Breading Mixture

Bread the Cheese Sticks
Coat each mozzarella stick first in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, and finally roll it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Repeat for all sticks.
Frying

Fry the Mozzarella Sticks
Carefully place the breaded mozzarella sticks into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels.
