If you love the fried mozzarella stick appetizers at Italian restaurants, you will love this homemade version!
1 lb. block mozzarella cheese
2/3 c. flour
1/3 c. cornstarch
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 c. water
1 1/2 c. Italian bread crumbs
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. dried basil
vegetable oil for frying
Slice the block of cheese lengthwise into about 1/2 inch sticks, set aside.
Blend the flour and cornstarch and set aside.
Beat the eggs with water and set aside.
Mix the bread crumbs, garlic, oregano, and basil and set aside.
Dip cheese into flour then into the egg wash and then coat with bread crumbs.
Place carefully into an oil filled frying pan heated to 350˚. Fry until golden brown, this should only take a matter of seconds, so you need to watch them closely. Drain on brown paper bags.
