preparation step makes all the difference between perfectly crispy bites and melted cheese escaping into the oil.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Cheese
Cut the cheese into evenly sized cubes, approximately ¾ inch (2 cm). Keeping the pieces uniform helps them cook evenly.
If using mozzarella, pat it dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Step 2: Prepare the Coating
Place your chosen coating ingredient in a shallow bowl.
If desired, mix in garlic powder, paprika, dried herbs, or black pepper to add extra flavor.
