Time 30m

Yield About 50 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 9

Two 8-ounce containers mozzarella bocconcini, drained from liquid
3/4 cups all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/3 cup milk
3 large eggs
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
Vegetable oil, for frying
Simple Tomato Sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Arrange the mozzarella balls on a sheet tray. Remove any excess liquid by patting them dry with paper towels.
  • In three separate shallow baking dishes, first add the flour to one and season with salt and pepper. Next, whisk together the milk and eggs in the second. Finally, add the breadcrumbs and Parmesan in the last shallow baking dish.
  • Roll each mozzarella ball in the flour, followed by the egg mixture and finally the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.
  • In a large high-sided saute pan, add 3 inches of oil. Heat the oil until it reaches 350 degrees F on a frying thermometer.
  • Working with 4 or 5 mozzarella balls at a time, fry until golden brown, about 1 minute. Remove with slotted spoon on to paper towel-lined plate and season immediately with salt.
  • To hold before serving, keep mozzarella balls on a wire rack over sheet tray in a 200 F degree oven.
  • Serve with Simple Tomato Sauce (link to Kelsey's existing recipe on cctv.com)

These were a little too oily for my taste, but they were still good.

I'm not a huge fan of cheese, but these fried bocconcini were amazing. The breading was crispy and the cheese was melted and gooey.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bocconcini didn't melt. They were still delicious, but they weren't as gooey as I expected.

I'm a big fan of fried mozzarella sticks, so I thought I'd try these fried bocconcini. They were just as good, if not better!

I'm not a huge fan of fried food, but these bocconcini were irresistible. They were so light and fluffy, and the sauce was to die for.

These were amazing! I used a spicy marinara sauce and it was the perfect complement to the creamy bocconcini.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my bocconcini didn't come out crispy. What did I do wrong?

These fried bocconcini were a hit at my party! They were crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, and the marinara sauce was the perfect dipping sauce.
