Ingredients

• About 5 cups vegetable oil

• 1 pound drained marinated bocconcini (small mozzarella balls), patted dry

• 3 large eggs, beaten

• 1 cup plain FINE dry bread crumbs ****

• Equipment: a deep-fat thermometer

• Accompaniment: warm homemade or bottled spicy tomato sauce

***** it is important to use fine bread crumbs... you want to form a solid coating around the cheese....or you will have a mess when you fry them****

Directions

Heat about 11/2 inches oil to 360°F in a 3 1/2-to 4-quart heavy saucepan.

Meanwhile, double-coat bocconcini by dipping in eggs, then in bread crumbs, and repeating. Transfer to a sheet of wax paper.

Working in batches of 10, lower balls into oil with a slotted spoon and fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 30 seconds per batch. Transfer to paper towels to drain and season with salt. (Return oil to 360°F between batches.)
