"Sorry Giada but this recipe just doesn't work. I would like to know how many times you had to re-tape the frying segment because honestly, these cheese fritters should be called cheese shells. As soon as they hit the oil they began to ooze cheese like crazy. A couple of tweaks (actually more than a couple helped saved this recipe. To start, I added 2 tbs. each of egg mixture and flour to the cheese mixture and combined. Then I added some garlic powder, salt and pepper because the flavor was non- existent and finally I added chopped parsley. Then I form the balls and double dip in egg and flour before finishing with the panko crumbs (make the ball, dip in flour, dip in egg, dip in flour, dip in egg and finally dip in panko crumbs. A lot more work but so worth it; they were delicious. I did not use Mozzarella. Instead I replaced with smoked chipotle Gouda or I use pepper jack with a little bit of extra sharp cheddar. Delish!!!!
