Diets 24 individual string cheeses, unwrapped
canola or peanut oil for deep-frying
1 small onion, finely diced
1 to 2 cloves garlic, minced or 1-2 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic
3 tablespoon Bartenura Olive Oil
1 (28-oz.) can diced or whole tomatoes, undrained
1 (6-oz.) can Gefen Tomato Paste
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 bay leaf
Place a spring roll wrapper on your work surface with a corner pointed towards you. Place string cheese toward the bottom.
Fold bottom corner over cheese, rolling once, and then fold in each side. Continue to roll up and wet the top corner with a wet pastry brush (or your fingers) so that the wrapper will stay closed. Press tightly to seal.
Repeat with remaining wrappers and cheese.
In a deep pan or pot, heat oil to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and fry cheese sticks in batches until brown, about one minute. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain well on paper towels. Serve with marinara sauce (see below).
Sauté onion and garlic in oil in a large saucepan or pot until soft. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and let simmer uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes or until thickened. Remove bay leaf.
