Fresh Mozzarella, Prosciutto & Basil Roll in Carozza
Ingredients
- For the batter:
- 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 Tbsp. cornmeal
- 1/2 cup soda water
- 1 quart water
- 2 tsp. baking soda
- 2 tsp. Kosher salt
- Frying Oil
- 8 oz. BelGioioso Fresh Mozzarella, Prosciutto and Basil Roll cheese, sliced 1/2 inch thick
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Directions
Combine 3 1/4 cups flour with cornmeal, soda water, water, baking soda and salt to form a batter.
Heat your preferred frying oil in a deep pan to 350˚F. Lightly dredge the cheese in 1/2 cup flour, then dip in batter and place gently in hot oil. Cook until light golden brown.
Remove battered cheese from oil and rest on a paper towel to help absorb the oil for about one minute. Serve immediately with spicy marinara sauce, if preferred.
