  • 2 tbsp olive oil this oil adds depth and helps with sautéing the garlic and chili

Method
 

How to Make Fried Burrata
  1. Start by sautéing minced garlic and sliced chili peppers in olive oil over medium heat for about 2 minutes.
  2. Add crushed tomatoes and let it simmer for 10 minutes until it thickens slightly.
  3. Create a breading station with three shallow dishes: one filled with flour, one with beaten eggs, and the last with panko breadcrumbs.
  4. Dredge the burrata in flour, dip it in the egg wash, and coat it with panko for maximum crunch.
  5. Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Carefully add the panko-coated burrata, frying for about 2 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  7. Gently place the fried burrata on serving plates and drizzle generously with the spicy sauce.
