Fried cheese sticks in pan with dill
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400 F or about 200 C. Cover a baking sheet of cheese with parchment paper (better than foil, as the cheese can stick to it).
- Beat 2 eggs in a small bowl and set aside.
- Place almond flour, coconut flour, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, garlic powder, and paprika flakes, if using, in a zip-top sandwich bag. Shake the bag until blended.
- Dip each mozzarella string/stick in the scrambled egg and then place in the sandwich bag. Shake the bag to cover the cheese string and set on a plate. Freeze for 30 to 60 minutes.
- If baking, place the mozzarella sticks on the baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
- If frying, heat a small amount of oil (preferably olive oil) to a depth of about 1/4 inch in a small frying pan.
- Heat the oil over medium heat and fry in a pan until golden brown. No need to try ‘deep frying’ them. brown all over
- Enjoy as is or use low-sugar marinara sauce
