This was okay, but I've had better fried cheese.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheese didn't get crispy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This was a lot of work for not a lot of payoff. I don't think I'll be making it again.

I found the cheese to be a bit bland. I think I'll add some spices next time.

This was a great appetizer. I served it with a side of marinara sauce, and it was a hit.

Delicious! I added some chopped herbs to the breading, and it gave it a really nice flavor.

This fried cheese was amazing! Perfectly crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. I served it with honey and lemon, and it was the perfect combination of sweet and savory.
