- For frying Oil
Instructions
Cut the cheese and long strips and place in your fridge to prevent it becoming soft. Mix flour, butter and egg in a bowl, and add sugar, salt and olive oil to taste into the mix. Then gradually add milk and knead well for a suitable consistency.
Stretch out the dough with a rolling pin and cut into long strips (2 to 3 cm) and then roll the strips of dough around the cheese strips forming a spiral. Make sure the dough covers the cheese fully so that it doesn't melt out while frying. Roll the cheese & dough strips through flour to prevent them from sticking while frying. Heat oil in a frying pan until hot before placing the cheese sticks, and fry until golden in color.
Chef tips
Keep the mozzarella strips refrigerated while preparing the dough so they stay firm. Add the milk gradually to control the dough’s consistency. Wrap the cheese fully in dough to help prevent it from leaking during frying.
