Method

Step 1

Cut the mozzarella cheese into one-inch squares with half-inch thickness. Gently pat off any excess moisture with an absorbent paper. Whisk the eggs lightly and keep aside. Season the flour with salt and freshly crushed peppercorns.

Step 2

Spread the seasoned flour on one plate and bread crumbs on another plate. Press the cheese slices into the flour, coating them evenly with a thin layer of flour. Shake off any excess.

Step 3

Dip them into the egg, then roll them in breadcrumbs. Repeat this process one more time. Heat sufficient oil in a kadai or wok to a smoking point and fry the cheese slices until golden brown.
