Mozzarella Stick Onion Rings
I like fried Mozzarella sticks, and I like onion rings, this is both in the same package of an onion ring! Lot of variants to try as well. On my to make list for sure! Links to the shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 2 large onions, sliced into 3/8 to 1/2 in thick pieces
- 3-4 slices Mozzarella Cheese, sliced into 3/8 to 1/2 in strips
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 5 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 cups bread crumbs, OR make from a shortcut
- oil, for frying
- marinara sauce, for dipping, Ranch dressing, OR make from shortcut
Instructions
- Peel and cut onions into 3/8 to 1/2 inch slices, then separate the rings. Slice the mozzarella into 3/8 to 1/2 inch strips, and place a smaller onion ring in the center of a larger ring. Fill the gap between the rings with strips of mozzarella. Repeat with remaining onion rings and freeze them for 1 hour.
- Place the flour, eggs, and bread crumbs into three separate bowls. Dip each prepared ring into the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs, then back into the egg, and one last time into the bread crumbs. Repeat with the remaining onion rings.
- Heat the oil in a pot over high heat. Fry the rings in batches until golden brown, being careful not to fry them for too long as the cheese may ooze out completely. Drain on paper towels and serve with marinara sauce or Ranch dressing. Enjoy!
Notes
The cheese would cost about 140 Baht/200 grams, slice it thin and you could probably double the recipe. If you use the entire block of cheese, this would cost about $1.03 per serving.
Shortcuts: Marinara Sauce (tomato sauce), Ranch Dressing, Breadcrumbs.
