I’ve always loved the sticky expansion of a mozzarella stick, and I admit that frozen boxes of ready-made mozzarella sticks were totally there in my childhood.
It turns out it’s really easy to make it yourself, and it tastes better when fresh.
First, it needs to be baked with the rusk twice so that it has a thick enough crust to keep the cheese inside.

The other thing is to freeze them for at least two hours before frying, otherwise the cheese will likely come out of the crust, which is not fun.
The plus side of this is that you can prepare them a day in advance, keep them in the freezer and fry whenever you are ready to serve them.
