TRADITIONAL AMERICAN RECIPE: Okey, fried Mozzarella cheese is not something you might find at a posh restaurant, but trust me, you have to try this amazing recipe.
It's true. Making fried mozzarella is kind of a hassle. Kind of a big, messy, annoying-as-hell hassle... but listen... you haven’t tried fried mozzarella cheese until you’ve made them yourself at home, and you haven’t tried fried mozzarella cheese until you’ve made these simple fried mozzarella cheese.
The first and only important part of making fried mozzarella, of course, is to acquire fresh mozzarella.
Fry these damn things! In batches, small enough that they're not bumping into each other in the pan. They should start sizzling vigorously the instant you lower them into the oil (if they don't do that immediately, the oil's not hot enough and the breading will get soggy and greasy), and it should take each batch maybe three minutes to get golden-brown on all sides.
Of course you want to nail both crispy outer breading and uniformly melty interior mozzarella to perfection, but the most important thing during frying is to get the breading right; if you have to, you can stick the fried mozzarella in a medium-hot oven to get the cheese melty, but this is the only crack you'll get at producing the crispy exterior. In any case, after a few minutes in the oil, each batch will be golden-brown all over, and you can haul them out to drain on a drying rack or a paper towel.
