Cooking Instructions

Pat dry the Fresh Mozzarella Pearls (2 cups) .

Set up the crumbling station. Place the All-Purpose Flour (1/2 cup) in a shallow bowl, beat the Eggland's Best Classic Eggs (2) in a separate bowl, and in a third bowl mix together the Panko Breadcrumbs (1 1/2 cups) along with the Salt (1 tsp) , Fresh Thyme Leaves (1 Tbsp) , Cayenne Pepper (1/2 tsp) , and Smoked Paprika (1 tsp) .

Roll the balls in the flour, dusting off any excess, then dip in the egg, then finally dredge in the spiced panko crumb mixture. Repeat this process again for a thicker, crunchier coating.

Place balls on a tray and transfer to the fridge for 30-40 minutes to set.

To make the chilli mayo, combine Mayonnaise (1 cup) , Sambal (2 tsp) or Sriracha, and Lime (1/4) in a bowl and mix well to combine. Leave aside.

Pour Vegetable Oil (as needed) into a deep fryer or heavy-based saucepan and heat until it reaches 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). In small batches, fry the balls for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, or until golden brown.

Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with additional salt while warm. Serve immediately with the chili mayo dipping sauce. Enjoy!
