deep fried grilled cheese!!! holy shit!
you look at that and go yeah, this is gonna be good as fuck. and you're right. and then you realize you need to dredge an entire sandwich in egg wash.
and then you're gently cradling the soggy, floppy remnants of egg and bread while slices of mozzarella hit the kitchen floor. i cut my mozzarella way too thick (cheese gluttony) and the structural integrity was just nonexistent.
when you're on your second attempt after accidentally disintegrating your first, you can coat in flour or breadcrumbs. of course i used breadcrumbs. other than some more cheese spillage when i flipped it, the frying portion went well.
if you make this at home, and you should, make sure the oil is at a medium temp, or else you're gonna have not-quite-melted mozz in the center. a lot of recipes call for tomato or basil as well, which would be really really good additions.
i had my beloved sandwich queen write the review portion:
it was like a mozzarella stick. easy. easy to make at home. :) uh. breading bread that already exists feels incestuous. but it was good.
