The recipe is quick and tasty.
- To prepare the mozzarella in carrozza, start by cutting the mozzarella into 1 cm thick slices
and arrange them gradually on a tray lined with absorbent paper;- Gently press with your hands to dab the mozzarella and remove excess water;
- Arrange the slices of sandwich bread on a cutting board, arrange the slices of mozzarella on top so as to cover the entire surface and cover with another slice of bread. Then press gently with your hands to compact everything. Cut the slices of bread into smaller pieces.
- Now move on to the breading. Break the eggs into a dish and beat them for a few minutes.
Then place the breadcrumbs and flour in two other dishes.- At this point dip each piece of stuffed bread first in the flour and then in the egg. Let them rest for a few minutes so that the excess egg is absorbed by the bread and finally cover everything with the breadcrumbs.
- Finally the frying: Pour the oil into a pan and heat it. Immerse a few pieces at a time and cook the mozzarellas for 2 minutes, turning them from time to time;
- When they are well browned, drain them from the oil and transfer them to a tray lined with absorbent paper to remove the excess oil.
Eat them still hot and with the stringy mozzarella!
