Slice the mozzarella into flat wedges, about 1/2 inch thick.

Heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with seasoned dry bread crumbs.

Coat each mozzarella wedge first with flour, ensuring all surfaces are covered.

Dip the floured wedge into the beaten eggs, allowing excess egg to drip off.

Coat the egg-covered wedge with bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Immediately place the breaded mozzarella wedge in the hot oil.

Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side, until the coating is golden brown and the cheese is melted inside.

Remove the fried mozzarella and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Serve immediately with lemon wedges and/or heated marinara sauce.
