Mozzarella sticks are very easy to make at home. They're deep-fried until golden and crispy on the outside, with melted gooey cheese on the inside. They're so good and take just minutes to fry! Try dipping them in a marinara sauce!

Ingredients

  • eggs: 2 piece (beaten)
  • water: 0.25 cup
  • Italian seasoned bread crumbs: 1.5 cups
  • garlic salt: 0.5 tsp
  • all-purpose flour: 0.66667 cup
  • cornstarch: 0.33333 cup
  • oil for frying: 2 cups (or as needed)
  • mozzarella cheese sticks: 1 pack (16 ounce pack)

  3. Dredge a mozzarella stick in flour; shake off excess. Dip into egg mixture. Lift up so excess egg drips back in the bowl. Press into bread crumbs to coat. Place breaded mozzarella stick on a plate or wire rack. Repeat with remaining mozzarella sticks.

  4. Use a spider spoon or a pair of tongs to lower 3 to 4 mozzarella sticks into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels. Repeat to fry remaining mozzarella sticks.
