Steps:
- For the mozzarella bites: Cut the mozzarella sticks into fourths, creating bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
- Add the flour to a shallow dish. Combine the eggs and milk in a second shallow dish. Combine the panko, Parmesan and parsley in a third shallow dish.
- Bread the mozzarella by first rolling each piece in the flour, then dunking it in the egg/milk mixture, then placing it in the panko mixture. Use your hands to ensure the entire piece is coated in the breadcrumbs. Transfer to a sheet pan and repeat with the remaining mozzarella pieces. Transfer to the freezer to firm up, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add two inches of oil to a skillet. Heat to 375 degrees F.
- For the buffalo sauce: Combine the hot sauce, butter, Worcestershire sauce and apple cider vinegar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Heat until the butter has melted and the sauce is hot, then remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
- Fry the mozzarella bites in batches until golden, between 45 seconds to 1 minute, being careful not to overcook. Carefully remove to drain on a paper towel and immediately sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Serve hot alongside a bowl of warm buffalo sauce, a bowl of ranch dressing and the carrot and celery sticks.

Steps:
- Distribute the eggplant on a sheet pan in one layer and generously salt on both sides. Lay another sheet pan on top of the eggplant and place a heavy object on top to add pressure. Set aside for 1 hour. Remove the weight and transfer the eggplant to paper towels and pat dry.
- Add the oil to a large hot skillet, making sure to cover the entire bottom of the pan with about 1/8 inch of oil. Add the eggplant just before the oil starts to smoke-it should sizzle as the eggplant is dropped in and the eggplant should brown pretty quickly. Once the eggplant is golden on both sides, about 3 to 5 minutes, remove from the oil and transfer to paper towels. Allow the eggplant to come to room temperature or to cool completely.
- Grill the bread slices on one side only. Rub the grilled side of 4 of the slices with the garlic. Top with the eggplant, followed by the mozzarella, the anchovies, and the relish. Top with the remaining 4 slices, cut into halves, and serve.
Tips:
- To ensure the mozzarella is evenly cooked, slice it into consistent thickness.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the mozzarella from sticking.
- Cook the mozzarella over medium heat to prevent it from burning.
- Do not overcrowd the skillet, as this will prevent the mozzarella from cooking evenly.
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the relish to enhance its taste.
- Adjust the amount of chili flakes in the relish to suit your desired level of spiciness.
- Serve the pan-fried buffalo mozzarella with the tomato relish immediately to enjoy its best flavor and texture.
