Perfect Mozzarella Sticks Recipes

HOMEMADE MOZZARELLA STICKS

Steps:

• Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the milk, then set aside. Place the bread crumbs into a plastic bag, and set aside.
• Separate and place an egg roll wrapper onto your work surface with one of the tips pointed towards you. Moisten the two far edges of the wrapper with water. Place a string cheese stick onto the corner nearest you, and roll it in 1/3 of the way, fold over the right and left corners, then continue rolling to the end, pressing to seal. Repeat with the remaining string cheese sticks and egg roll wrappers.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Dip the mozzarella sticks into the egg wash, then toss in the bread crumbs. Cook in batches in the hot oil until crisp and golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes.

MOZZARELLA STICKS

Steps:

• Cut mozzarella lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick slices, then cut again into 4-by-1/2-inch sticks. Place flour in a shallow dish; season with salt and pepper. Whisk eggs with 1 tablespoon water in a separate dish; season with salt and pepper. Stir together breadcrumbs, Parmigiano-Reggiano, and herbs in a third shallow dish; season with salt and pepper.
• Dredge mozzarella sticks in flour, tapping off excess. Dip in egg wash, allowing excess to drip off, and coat with breadcrumbs, patting to adhere. Transfer mozzarella sticks to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze until firm, at least 1 hour. (Mozzarella sticks can be covered and frozen at this point up to 2 months.)
• Pour enough oil into a heavy pot (preferably cast iron) to come 2 inches up sides. Heat over medium-high until a deep-fry thermometer reads 350 degrees. Working in batches, add mozzarella sticks; cook, turning occasionally, until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes (adjust heat as necessary to maintain oil temperature.) Transfer to a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to drain. Season with salt; serve immediately, with marinara sauce.

Steps:

• Take the egg and scramble it in a bowl.
• Get out a cutting board and lay an egg roll wrap flat on it.
• Cut a piece of mozzarella about 1 1/2 inches wide and 4 inches tall.
• Dip your fingers (or use a brush) into the egg and spread around the entire outer edges of the egg roll wrap.
• Place the cheese an inch inward from the top of the wrap and center it from the sides.
• Fold the inch or so of the wrap that you have so it covers half of the cheese.
• Use egg to make the folded edges stay down.
• Now fold the left and right sides of the wrap over the cheese and finally fold the cheese forward so that the cheese is encased in the wrap.
• Use egg again to keep the wrap folded once it is done.
• Refrigerate for about a half hour before deep frying.
• If done correctly, the cheese will not spill out into the oil once it gets hot.
• Serve with marinara sauce.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Whisk eggs and milk together.
• Coat each piece of cheese with flour, then dip in egg and then roll in bread crumbs.
• Dip in egg and crumbs again.
• Freeze before frying.
• Heat oil in skillet and cook sticks for about a minute on each side, or until golden and before cheese starts to leak.
• Drain on paper towels.
• Serve with sauce for dipping.

MOZZARELLA STICKS

Steps:

• Cut the mozzarella into 'chips'. Tip the flour into a bowl and season well. Whisk the eggs in a second bowl and tip the breadcrumbs, paprika and oregano into a third. Coat the mozzarella sticks in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs. Transfer to a parchment-lined tray and freeze for at least 2 hrs.
• Heat enough oil to come 2-3cm up the side of a saucepan. When hot, drop in a test chip - it should sizzle straight away and brown within a minute or two. The secret is to cook them long enough to crisp up the outside without letting the mozzarella ooze out - it may take you a few practice chips to get it right. Cook the chips in batches and drain on kitchen paper. Serve hot with your favourite dip.
