Description
Mozzarella with Anchovies
Ingredients
- Pizza Mozzarella Cheese 5 pieces
- Chopped Sage Leaves 10 pieces
- Anchovy fillet 5 pieces
- Wheat Flour 2 spoons
- Chicken Egg ½ pieces
- Olive Oil 15 fl oz
- Salt to taste
- Ground Black Pepper to taste
- Mild Chili Spice to taste
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Mix the egg with the flour and dilute with a small amount of water until you achieve a liquid batter consistency, similar to pancake batter.
Step 2
Pour oil into a saucepan — enough to submerge the anchovy fillets. Heat the oil until it reaches a boiling point.
Step 3
Wrap each anchovy fillet with a large sage leaf on both sides, then dip it alternately in the batter and drop it into the deep fryer. Once the batter is lightly golden, place the anchovies on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
Step 4
Place a thin slice of chili pepper on each mozzarella ball — though you can skip this if you prefer — and top with anchovies using toothpicks or skewers. Serve the dish hot.
