- 7.
- Place your mozzarella stick in a deep frying basket or something else (we used a potato masher) that’ll enable you to dip the mozzarella stick in the oil to fry.
- Be sure to grease your frying tool (basket, potato masher, etc…) by dipping it in the oil first so the mozzarella stick doesn’t stick to it.

- Remove mozzarella stick from the fryer and place on paper towels to absorbed the excess oil.
