Method

6 steps · 40 minutes

Use the firm block kind, not the balls in water. Fresh mozzarella is far too wet for this and will burst every time.
Cut into sticks and freeze them solid, at least two hours.
Egg, then the almond flour mixed with parmesan and herbs, then egg and crumb a second time.
Two coats is the difference between a stick and a leak. Do not skip the second one.
Back into the freezer for 30 minutes after coating.
Fry in shallow hot oil, 45 seconds a side, and eat them within a couple of minutes. Cold, they set into rubber.
