By Cindy

Ingredients

• 1 pound mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup flour
• 1/4 cup corn starch
• 2 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs
• 1 cup of milk
• vegetable oil for frying

Preparation

Step 1

Cut cheese sticks into long slices approximately 3/8 inch thick.
Blend together the flour and corn starch in a bowl. Place cheese
plank into the flour, then dip into a bowl of whole milk, and then
dip the cheese stick into the bread crumbs. Shake off excess bread
crumbs and place mozzarella stick on a wire rack. Discard the
flour. Repeat until all cheese sticks have been dipped once. When
all of the cheese sticks have been dipped once place back into
milk, then into bread crumbs for the second time, and shake off the
bread crumbs. Dip all cheese sticks into bread crumbs for the
second time.

Preheat vegetable oil to 350 degrees F for frying. Drop cheese
stick into hot oil and fry until golden brown. This should take no
longer than 1 minute. Remove cheese stick from oil and place on a
wire rack to cool.

Serve with your favorite marinara sauce.
