Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best results. Fresh mozzarella cheese and sharp cheddar cheese will give you the best flavor.
- Make sure the cheese is cold before you bread and fry it. This will help it hold its shape better.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the cheese bites. This will cause them to stick together and not cook evenly.
- Fry the cheese bites until they are golden brown and crispy. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Serve the cheese bites immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or marinara sauce are all great options.
