FRESH TOMATO & MOZZARELLA SALAD

• Cut up the tomatoes and mozzarella into large cubes.
• Add basil leaves and drizzle w/ vinegar and olive oil.
• Stir lightly.
• Sprinkle with a little salt.
• Chill at least one hour.
• Store in refrigerator.

MOZZARELLA STICKS

Steps:

• Cut the mozzarella into 'chips'. Tip the flour into a bowl and season well. Whisk the eggs in a second bowl and tip the breadcrumbs, paprika and oregano into a third. Coat the mozzarella sticks in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs. Transfer to a parchment-lined tray and freeze for at least 2 hrs.
• Heat enough oil to come 2-3cm up the side of a saucepan. When hot, drop in a test chip - it should sizzle straight away and brown within a minute or two. The secret is to cook them long enough to crisp up the outside without letting the mozzarella ooze out - it may take you a few practice chips to get it right. Cook the chips in batches and drain on kitchen paper. Serve hot with your favourite dip.

FRESH MOZZARELLA BALLS

Steps:

• Add 2 tablespoons salt to 4 cups simmering water.
• Chop the cheese curd and add to a large bowl. Pour the simmering water over the chopped curds.
• Use 2 wooden spoons to push the curds together to make one ball. Move the ball around in the water for roughly 1 minute so it can become pliable.
• While wearing thick dishwashing gloves, remove the curd from the water and pull it into a long cord and fold it back onto itself. Do not overwork the cheese or it will become tough.
• Pinch off the mozzarella to create balls and tuck the end under each ball for a neat appearance.
• Place the mozzarella into a bowl of cool water.
• Store in the salted water you used to soften the curd.
