Mozzarella sticks
Deep-fried mozzarella sticks with cherry tomatoes
Ingredients
2 balls of mozzarella (125 g each)
2 eggs
50 g flour
100 g breadcrumbs
1 bottle ORO di Parma passata rustica
A couple of ORO d’Italia cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp. ORO di Parma tomato paste, triple concentration
1-2 garlic cloves
A generous handful of tarragon, thyme and rosemary
2-3 tbsp. olive oil
2 tsp. white wine vinegar
Salt, pepper, 1 tbsp. sugar
Oil for deep-frying
Step 1
First whisk the eggs, then cut the mozzarella balls in half and cut them into strips. Now you can bread the cut mozzarella sticks. Dip them first in the flour, then in the beaten eggs and finally in the breadcrumbs and coat them well. Halve the fresh cherry tomatoes for the dip. Of course, Italian herbs should not be missing: Cut tarragon, thyme and rosemary as finely as possible, because this way they give off their aroma particularly intensively.
Step 2
Put some olive oil in the pan and heat it slightly. Sauté the thyme, rosemary and garlic and add a dash of vinegar. Then add ORO di Parma chunky tomatoes and ORO di Parma tomato paste. In the next step, mix in the halved tomatoes and the sugar. Let the sauce simmer for about 10 minutes over medium heat.
Step 3
Now it's getting hot and greasy: Heat the oil and deep-fry the mozzarella sticks until they are nice and golden brown.
Finally, just add the tarragon to the sauce, fold it in and season with salt and pepper.
Serve your mozzarella sticks together with the dip - so delicious! Makes it hard not to eat it all yourself before the party. Buon Appetito!
