🌍 Italian, Naples/Campania Difficulty: ●●●○○

A Neapolitan fried sandwich where the mozzarella must be fresh enough to pull into strings when bitten. Drain the mozzarella thoroughly or the bread will turn sodden in the egg wash. Fry in oil hot enough to seal the crust in seconds.

Ingredients

8 slices white sandwich bread
250g mozzarella, sliced
2 eggs, beaten
100ml milk
Breadcrumbs for coating
Olive oil for frying

Method

Making — Make sandwiches with mozzarella inside, edges pressed to seal.
Dipping — Dip in egg mixed with milk; coat in breadcrumbs.
Frying — Fry in hot oil 2 min each side until golden.
