Eggless mozzarella sticks
Fried cheese is our default order whenever we go to Italian restaurants, and in a couple of fast-food chains likes McDonald's and Burger King. My son loves it so I tried frozen mozzarella cheese sticks from Indian stores, but was not happy with the result. After various trials and errors, I started making my best homemade eggless cheese bites in this way and our entire family loves it.
Restaurant-style cheese fingers
Traditionally mozzarella cheese is used for cheese sticks but you can use cheddar cheese or any cheese of your choice. If you are using cheddar adjust the salt accordingly. Next to Cheese chips, mozzarella cheese sticks are my kid's favorite after-school snacks.
Should I refrigerate Eggless Mozzarella sticks?
Yes, I would recommend a few hours of refrigerating as it will yield a better coated outer layer for a mozzarella cheese stick.
Why did my cheese melt while deep frying?
Make sure you dip the cheese sticks well in the batter and coat an even layer of breadcrumbs.
Can I add double-dip batter and breadcrumbs?
I was experimenting with eggless mozzarella sticks with single dip and double-dip. Personally, my family likes the single dip. I feel the thin outer layer and gooey cheese layer tastes best. Double dip makes an even coated crispy outer layer but I feel the outer layer dominates the taste. You can add double-dip according to your preference
Can I use regular breadcrumbs?
I have used panko bread crumbs. You can use plain panko or regular breadcrumbs or Italian panko breadcrumbs if you like Italian flavors. Regular bread crumbs might give dark brown cheese bites compared to panko bread crumbs.
Can I freeze the mozzarella cheese stick?
Dip the sticks in the batter and coat in breadcrumbs and freeze it. It stays good for weeks maybe longer but honestly in our home it won't last long. I used to make a batch and freeze a few. Frozen cheese sticks stay good for weeks. Always thaw the frozen cheese finger for 10 minutes before frying.
