How to Make Crispy Wonton Mozzarella Sticks
  1. Start by pouring vegetable oil into a frying pan. Heat it up to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Take a wonton wrapper and lay it flat on your workspace. Place a mozzarella string cheese in the center.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg white and water until smooth.
  4. Dip a brush into the egg wash and lightly brush the edges of the wonton wrapper.
  5. Fold the wrapper over the cheese to create a pocket. Press the edges firmly to seal tightly.
  6. Gently place your sealed wontons into the hot oil. Fry for about 2 minutes.
  7. Carefully lift the wontons out of the oil and place them on a paper towel.
  8. Sprinkle the fried wontons with coarse salt and freshly grated Parmesan cheese while they’re still warm.
  9. Arrange your crispy delights on a platter and serve them warm alongside marinara sauce for dipping.
