Step 1:
Start by cutting the mozzarella cheese into bite-sized cubes. If you’re using string cheese, cut each piece into three or four sections, depending on your preferred bite size.

Step 2:
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. In the third bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.

Step 3:
Dip each piece of mozzarella cheese into the flour, ensuring it’s fully coated. Then, dip it into the beaten egg, followed by the breadcrumb mixture. Press gently to ensure the breadcrumbs stick well to the cheese.

Step 4:
Once all cheese bites are breaded, place them on a tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This step helps the coating set and prevents it from falling off during frying.

Step 5:
Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot (around 180°C/350°F), fry the cheese bites in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden and crispy. Remove from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
