Mozzarella Sticks
November 21st, 2010 PrintThese are so simple to prepare and definitely a crowd pleaser. Dairy and fried foods are both traditional Chanukah fare so this recipe is doubly appropriate!
Ingredients:
Mozzarella cheese sticks
Flour
Egg
Panko bread crumbs
Oil, for frying
Marinara sauce, for dipping
Directions:
- Remove the wrappers from the mozzarella sticks. Cut each cheese stick in half.
- In three separate dishes prepare flour, beaten egg, and panko bread crumbs. Dredge each cheese stick first in flour, then egg, and last the crumbs. Set aside on a pan or plate. Freeze for at least 30 minutes, or you can prepare these days in advance.
- Heat 1-2 inches of oil in a frying pan. When oil is hot fry the sticks in small batches. They only need to fry for 1-2 minutes per side, just until golden. Be sure to remove them before the cheese begins oozing out. Drain on paper towels.
- Serve immediately with Marinara sauce for dipping.

We hungarians double coat the chese to prevent the melted cheese to ooze out:
flour, egg, bread cumbs, again eggs, bread crumbs. We fry them on high flame, so the outside fries quickly but no time for the cheese to get very melted, just perfect!
Sorry for being smartypants….just a good advice!
