Instructions

- Take the cheese sticks from the freezer and place them into the preheated fryer.
- Make sure you keep some space between the frozen cheese sticks.

- Continue cooking for about 1 or 2 more minutes, then transfer the golden mozzarella sticks into serving plates.

Notes
- Cook's Tip #1: Make sure you preheat your fryer. Even if your fryer's manual says, 'does not need preheating,' I find out from experience that it's better not to skip it because it makes a difference in how the food turns out.
- Cook's Tip #2: Remember to shake the frozen cheese sticks halfway through cooking --- this step ensures that the cheese sticks have a nice, darker color on all sides.
