Fried Mozzarella & Prosciutto Pockets

Step 1

Cut the mozzarella into 4 equal slices (approximately 1/2-inch thick).

Step 2

Beat the eggs with a little salt and pepper.

Step 3

Add prosciutto slices and basil leaves on top of 2 of the mozzarella pieces. Top with a little tomato sauce. Cover with the other mozzarella slices, forming a sandwich.

Step 4

Dip in flour (shaking off the excess), then in egg, and finally in breadcrumbs. Repeat this step until well-coated.

Step 5

Fry in oil until browned. Serve topped with more tomato sauce.
