1 product1 product £ 8.36
Preparation
- STEP 1 OF 7
Drain the Costanzo mozzarella well and pat it dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Cut the mozzarella into slices about 1 cm thick.
- STEP 2 OF 7
Place 4 slices of bread on a flat surface. Lay the mozzarella slices on 4 of these bread slices and cover with the remaining 4 slices of bread, thus creating 4 sandwiches.
- STEP 3 OF 7
Prepare three plates: one with flour, one with beaten eggs (mixed with 2 tablespoons of milk), and one with breadcrumbs. Dip each sandwich first in the flour, ensuring it is well covered.
- STEP 4 OF 7
Then dip in the egg mixture, allowing it to absorb evenly. Finally, coat with breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to adhere well.
- STEP 5 OF 7
Heat plenty of vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot (about 170°C), fry the sandwiches, a few at a time, until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- STEP 6 OF 7
Drain the sandwiches on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- STEP 7 OF 7
Serve the mozzarella in carrozza hot, garnished with fresh parsley sprigs if desired.
