Easy and very yummy! I didn’t freeze the coated slices as long as recommended (30 mins once and 10 another), it turned out very well each time.

thanks for this recipe! fried mozzarella is one of my fav restaurant treats, but i had never tried fresh mozza. instead of italian seasoning i used celery salt – not quite as classy but so delicious

very tasty…but kind of half way went to pieces in my fryer. but, that very well could be because they were left in a little long. great flavor though…i think i need another one right now!

Fantastic and easy recipe!! I have never tried the panko–only regular bread crumbs–but I imagine that it would be even crispier with panko!! Which then makes it even better!! It is a bit difficult working with fresh mozzarella because it is very moist–but SO worth it!!
