Aruban Cheese Sticks
Gooey mozzarella wrapped in crispy homemade pastry, fried until bubbling and gloriously molten.
Ingredients
150g plain flour, plus extra for dusting1.5kg
120ml whole milk1L
Knob of unsalted butter250g
1 medium egg6 pack
1kg block mozzarella, cut into batons1kg
1 tsp caster sugar1kg
1 tsp fine salt750g
1 tsp olive oil500ml
500ml vegetable oil, for deep frying1L
Method
- Cut the cheese and long strips and place in your fridge to prevent it becoming soft. Mix flour, butter and egg in a bowl, and add sugar, salt and olive oil to taste into the mix. Then gradually add milk and knead well for a suitable consistency.
- Stretch out the dough with a rolling pin and cut into long strips (2 to 3 cm) and then roll the strips of dough around the cheese strips forming a spiral. Make sure the dough covers the cheese fully so that it doesn't melt out while frying. Roll the cheese & dough strips through flour to prevent them from sticking while frying. Heat oil in a frying pan until hot before placing the cheese sticks, and fry until golden in color.
