Mozzarella and parmesan in carrozza
Apr 07, 2026 02:06 PM
A carrozza — otherwise known as a mozzarella in carrozza — is a type of fried cheese sandwich or pastry popular in Italian cuisine. This one comes together by coating a decadent mozzarella and parmesan cheese sandwich in milk and egg before frying it off in batches until deeply golden.
Enjoy while hot, but fair warning to blow before you bite.
