Fried M0zzerall@ Chee$e $Tick$

We all know that Mozzarella cheese is a main ingredient of the Pizza. I had always thought that Mozzarella cheese was used for making Pizza's only.This misconception about mozzarella cheese was changed when I came to know about the dish: Fried M0zerall@ Chee$e $tick$. Mozzarella cheese sticks are elongated pieces of battered or breaded mozzarella.

I must say that dish is very delicious. But with respect to nutrition aspects, the calorie content of the dish is 470 cal. So you need to do a rigorous workout after having the same :)

Recipe shown here is using Oil. You can use a microwave oven for preparing the same, i.e Baked M0zzerall@ Chee$e $tick$.Spray the frozen sticks with oil. Check that the sticks aren't touching, then place into the oven to bake. Bake for 5 minutes, then check for crispness. Turn them over with a pair of tongs to crisp for another 4-5 minutes on the other side
