Mozzarella in a Carriage

2 servings

30 minutes

A simple and delicious snack, a closed sandwich with cheese inside. The bread serves as a "carriage" into which the mozzarella is tightly placed, and the sandwich is fried on both sides in a frying pan. The additions can be both sweet (cinnamon with sugar and strawberry jam ) and salty. We offer a video recipe for mozzarella in carrozza, as it is prepared in Rome. An ideal snack with a glass of very cold sparkling wine such as prosecco or franciacorta.
