Sandwiches with mozzarella cheese

2 servings

15 minutes

Mozzarella cheese sandwiches are the perfect combination of tenderness and a crispy crust, reminiscent of cozy Italian meals. This recipe is rooted in Italian culinary traditions that value simplicity and rich flavor. Mozzarella melts inside the bread with its soft texture and milky aroma, creating a delicate and stretchy delight. The aroma of toasted white bread with a golden crust adds appetizing appeal to the dish, making it ideal for breakfast or a light snack. By dipping the sandwiches in milk and then in flour and egg mixture, we create a thin crispy shell that highlights the creamy flavor of the cheese. These sandwiches can be served with fresh vegetables, herbs, or tomato sauce, adding a touch of Mediterranean charm.
