Ingredients:
– 8 slices of white bread
– 8 slices of fresh mozzarella cheese
– 2 large eggs
– 1/4 cup whole milk
– Salt and black pepper
– All-purpose flour
– Canola oil for frying
– Optional: tomato sauce for dipping
Instructions:
1. Slice the fresh mozzarella cheese and set it aside. Next, place each slice of bread on a flat surface or cutting board, and then place one slice of mozzarella cheese on four of the slices of bread.
2. Take the remaining four slices of bread and place them on top of the cheese slices to create a sandwich.
3. Cut off the crust of each sandwich and press the bread edges together to seal them well.
4. In a shallow dish, beat the eggs and add the milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk them together until smooth and set aside.
5. Sprinkle some flour over a plate or a flat surface.
6. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add enough canola oil to coat the skillet. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
7. Dip each sandwich in the egg mixture, making sure the entire sandwich is covered with the egg mixture.
8. Then roll the sandwich in the flour, making sure it is coated evenly on all sides.
9. Place the sandwiches in the hot oil and fry until golden brown on both sides. This should take approximately 2-3 minutes on each side. You may need to fry the sandwiches in batches, depending on the size of your skillet.
10. When the Mozzarella in Carrozza is crispy and golden brown, remove them from the oil and place them on a plate covered with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
11. Serve hot with your favorite tomato sauce for dipping.
