Fried Cheese Bites

Arrange 3 small bowls side by side. Mix flour and 1/4 tsp salt in one bowl. Beat egg and 1 tsp water in center bowl. In final bowl mix bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, and last 1/4 tsp salt.

Working in batches dredge cheese cubes in flour, then egg wash, then breadcrumbs. Coating all sides very well. Note: You may need to gently press the breadcrumbs into the egg layer. If you feel the need repeat the egg and breadcrumb layers.

Once coated arrange in a single layer on a platter. Place in freezer for at least 1 hour, and up to ready to use. Note: If you want to store for later use another day transfer to a freezer bag after 1 hr.

When ready to cook heat enough oil for deep frying to 350F. Let cheese bites sit out while oil heats. Place cheese bites in hot oil and cook until golden. This only took about 2 minutes for me.
