Cheese and Pepperoni Mozzarella Sticks

Place pepperoni slices in a row along the center of each tortilla.
Lay a string cheese stick on top of the row of pepperoni.
Roll and Secure:
Carefully roll up the tortilla, enclosing the pepperoni and string cheese inside.
If needed, secure the seam with toothpicks to prevent the mozzarella sticks from unraveling during cooking.
Choose Cooking Method:
You have the option to either fry or air fry the mozzarella sticks. Both methods will result in deliciously crispy cheese sticks.
Frying Method:
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the rolled-up mozzarella sticks in the pan, seam side down.
Fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides, turning as needed to ensure even cooking.
Air Frying Method:
Preheat your air fryer to the recommended temperature for frying.
Place the rolled-up mozzarella sticks in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching each other.
Air fry until golden brown and crispy, following the manufacturer’s instructions for cooking times.
Drain and Serve:
Once the mozzarella sticks are cooked to perfection, carefully remove them from the frying pan or air fryer.
Place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
