8 servings

  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 0.25 cup water
  • 1.5 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 0.66666668653488 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.33333334326744 cup cornstarch
  • 2 cups oil for frying, or as needed
  • 1 (16 ounce) package mozzarella cheese sticks

Instructions

  • Gather all ingredients.
  • Whisk water and eggs together in a small bowl. Mix bread crumbs and garlic salt together in a medium bowl. Blend flour and cornstarch together in a third bowl.
  • Heat oil to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C) in a large, heavy saucepan.
  • Dredge a mozzarella stick in flour; shake off excess. Dip into egg mixture. Lift up so excess egg drips back in the bowl. Press into bread crumbs to coat. Place breaded mozzarella stick on a plate or wire rack. Repeat with remaining mozzarella sticks.
  • Use a spider spoon or a pair of tongs to lower 3 to 4 mozzarella sticks into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels. Repeat to fry remaining mozzarella sticks.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!
