Instructions to make Fresh fried mozzarella sticks:
- Preheat oven to 300. Toast 5 pieces (or more depending on size) of sourdough in the toaster till well darkend brown, let cool then transfer onto bare oven rack for 10 minutes or less to finish drying out the bread :) Let cool again on a rack so bread wont become moist. Then use a blender or a bullet, if unavailable, use a big sturdy zip lock bag to bash with a mallet! Make very crumbly small.
- In 3 Separate bowls, add milk and eggs whisked very well. Mix flour, salt, pepper, onion/garlic powder, 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning mix in another bowl. Add breadcrumbs and 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning to the last bowl mix well.
- Preheat oil in medium deep skillet (I used iron) on medium high heat, wait 20 minutes, when it starts to feel hot (I place my hand hovering safely over the oil feeling the heat) place a small mixture of flour and milk/egg to see how quickly it browns, I turn it down to a bit above Medium heat.
- Dip mozzarella sticks into milk/egg, then into flour, back into milk/egg, then into bread crumbs. Repeat this process, also I used a fork. Fry 6 at a time for 3-5 mins, till golden it darker brown :D
- Enjoy!! Use any jar of marinara in the cub board heated, or Ranch!
Dip each stick in the batter and toss in the panko mixture until fully coated. Mozzarella sticks are elongated pieces of battered or breaded mozzarella, usually served as hors d'oeuvre. Mozzarella sticks may be served with tomato, ketchup, or marinara sauce, as well as plum sauce, jalapeño jelly, barbecue sauce, honey mustard sauce, and ranch dressing. I made these for my daughter, and I'll never buy store bought cheese sticks again because these are so quick and delicious. Fried Mozzarella sticks aren't a new appetizer by any means, but when the cheese is coated with crunchy Panko bread crumbs and then fried up until the cheese is melted and the bread crumb coating is crispy, these fried Mozzarella sticks become anything but ordinary!
