SUMMARY
Mozzarella in carrozza. A mozzarella sandwich breadcrumbed , deep fried then dipped in a marinara sauce. Yes this may clog your arteries but as the late Anthony Bourdain said "your body is not a temple its an Amusement park".
In a world of fad diets, avocado on toast and juice cleansing we wanted to create a safe space for professional chefs and amateurs (like us) to share their most decadent slutty dushes, a puff pastry topped haven that people could come to and delight in food that really doesn’t give a damn.
This week @bboxfood will be doing a takeover of the FoodSlut page sharing some pure filth for you guys to enjoy. I think you will agree he has set the bar pretty high with his Mozzarella in carrozza!
All recipes will be on our website afterwards so you guys can give it a try and we can all fly the trans fat flag together.
RECIPE
Make the marinara by sweating down shallot and garlic in some olive oil.
Add the tomatoes, sugar, vinegar and some seasoning
Cook out for 20 mins before removing from the heat adding the basil and chilli flakes before blending
Make the sandwich with the mozzarella and bread, dip in flour, egg then breadcrumb
Heat about 4cm deep of oil in a frying pan and fry the sandwich until golden brown and oozing inside.
For an extra slutty touch grate over some Parmesan cheese
