Fried Mozzarella with Roasted Pepper Sauce

Another great appetizer recipe from Recipe Cove.

2 jars roasted peppers
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup water
¼ cup red wine vinegar
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tbsp. cayenne pepper
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. pepper
3 16 oz. pkgs. of mozzarella
2 cups bread crumbs
1½ cups vegetable oil
2 eggs, beaten with ¼ cup of water

Instructions:

Slice mozzarella into slices (approximately 15 per pkg.)
Dip mozzarella in egg mixture and then into bread crumbs just like you would to chicken cutlets. Do all pieces of cheese before starting to fry, it makes it easier.
Heat 1½ cups of oil in large fry pan.
Place cheese cutlets in fry pan, do not over crowd.
Let brown on both sides watching carefully not to melt cheese all over the place.
When done set aside on serving platter.
In medium sauce pan heat olive oil, roasted peppers, garlic powder, salt, pepper, water, red wine vinegar and cayenne pepper.
When warmed pour mixture into blender and pulse until creamy.
The sauce can be poured into small ramekins so all your guestshave their own sauce and are not dipping into the same dish.
