Fried Smoked Mozzarella

• 1 smoked mozzarella weighing about 250 g (9 oz)
• 3 tbsp

Slice the mozzarella into four thick slices. Dust each slice with flour, dip into the beaten egg and then coat with the bread-crumbs. Heat the butter in a heavy pan until it fizzes. Fry the mozzarella slices until crisp and brown on each side. It will take less than a minute to seal the coating. The cheese should hardly have melted or the slices will fall apart. Serve with a lettuce or rocket s
