Preparation Steps
In a bowl, combine shredded mozzarella, flour, salt, and pepper.
In another bowl, whisk the egg.
Shape the cheese mixture into small balls.
Roll each cheese ball in the flour, then dip in the egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Carefully place the cheese balls into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Remove the fried cheese balls from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
For extra flavor, add some garlic powder or herbs to the cheese mixture.
