Spicy Mozzarella Bites

If using dried anchovies, wash and remove the bones; if using canned anchovies, simply drain the oil

Mix with butter or margarine in a pan over low heat until completely melted

Cut the mozzarella into 1 cm thick slices, coat with flour, then dip three times: egg, beaten with bread crumb to form a thick crust

Let it sit for a bit and fry in hot oil

Fry in small batches to ensure they are fully coated by the boiling oil

Arrange on a tray and top with anchovy sauce with butter, adding some capers; alternatively, use tomato sauce
