Ingredients

Mozzarella Balls

  • 2 eggs, beaten

  • oil, for frying

Salad

  • heirloom or on the vine tomatoes

  • mixed greens

  • toasted pepitas

Balsamic Maple Glaze

Directions

1.

Place the flour, bread crumbs, and egg in three separate bowls.

2.

Dip the mozzarella balls in flour, then in the egg, and roll in the bread crumbs.

3.

Heat one inch of oil in a large pot. To test if hot enough, drop a pinch of bread crumbs into the oil. If bubbles form immediately around the bread crumbs and they rise to the top, your oil is ready.

4.

Drop in a few balls at a time. Fry for two minutes, gently turning as they brown, until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a cooling rack to drain.

5.

To assemble, slice the tomatoes and fan them in a circle on your dish. Place a generous handful of mixed greens in the center, then add the fried mozzarella balls around the greens. Top with crumbled feta cheese and toasted seeds, then drizzle with balsamic dressing.
