Mozzarella In Carrozza
- One 3-ounce ball fresh mozzarella, sliced 1/4 inch thick and cut into 2-inch squares
- 8 slices country bread, 1/2 inch thick, crusts removed, cut into 2-inch squares
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 cup cold water
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- vegetable oil (enough to fill a wide pan 2 inches deep)
- Sandwich the mozzarella slices between the bread slices, pressing down so that they hold together. Dip the edges of the sandwiches into the flour, then quickly into and out of the water, then arrange the sandwiches on a plate in a single layer. Pour the eggs over the sandwiches. Turn the sandwiches over until they absorb all the egg.
- In a deep skillet over high heat, warm the vegetable oil until it is very hot. When it is 375F. (a drop of water will sizzle and splatter), reduce the heat to medium and carefully put the sandwiches in. Fry them until they are golden, then drain them on paper towels before serving.
