Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Cheese (Mozzarella or a firm cheese of choice)
- 100 grams Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 50 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
Cut the cheese into sticks or cubes, approximately 1 inch in size, ensuring uniform thickness to allow even cooking.
In a small bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Set aside.
In a separate shallow dish, combine the gluten-free breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Place the gluten-free all-purpose flour in another shallow bowl.
Set up a breading station with the flour, eggs, and spiced breadcrumbs in line.
Dredge each cheese piece in the flour, tapping off any excess.
Dip the floured cheese into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess egg to drip back into the bowl.
Finally, coat the egg-dipped cheese in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the breadcrumbs. Repeat for all cheese pieces.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat, ensuring the oil is about 1 inch deep.
Once the oil is hot (around 350°F or 175°C), carefully add the breaded cheese pieces in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Fry each piece for about 1-2 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy the crispy, gooey goodness.
