10 slices white sandwich bread
1 1/2 pounds unsliced mozzarella cheese
8 beaten eggs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Oil for deep frying
Remove crusts from bread slices; cut each slice diagonally into quarters. Cut 40 pieces of cheese the same size and thickness of bread pieces. Beat together eggs, the first 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, and salt.
To assemble, coat bread pieces with flour, then dip in egg mixture. Repeat with cheese; place one cheese triangle atop each bread triangle. (To make ahead, sprinkle with a little flour; cover and refrigerate several hours.)
Sprinkle each triangle with some of the remaining Parmesan cheese. Fry 2 or 3 at a time, cheese side down, in deep fryer (365 degrees) about 2 minutes or until golden, turning once. Drain on paper toweling; serve warm. Makes 40.
