These are definitely ten times better than those heat-n-serve ones and cheaper too.
Its so crispy on the outside and has the perfect melted cheese on the inside.

After that, cut it into 5 equal sections.
Each stick should be approximately 1/4 x 1/4 x 3.
Youll get 20 mozzarella sticks for an 8 oz block of cheese.
Coat them well, then shake to remove excess flour.
Step 3:
Add 2 large eggs to a bowl and whisk with 2 tablespoons of water.
Add the floured sticks to the mixture and coat them.
In another bowl, add the bread crumbs.
After the egg wash, coat them with bread crumbs, shake off excess, and set it aside.
Repeat the breading process by dipping in the egg mixture again followed by the bread crumbs.
Place onto a plate and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours.
This will help prevent the cheese blowout during cooking.
Step 4:
Add a generous amount of oil to a pot and heat to 350F.
Cook them in batches.
Fry the cheese sticks until golden brown.
It will take less than a minute to cook them.
Place on a plate lined with a paper towel or in a wire rack to drain excess oil.
Step 5:
Serve the mozzarella sticks with marina sauce and enjoy!
