Mozzarella Sticks

Okay, so these are definitely not the "traditional" mozzarella sticks (obviously), but I thought that for being so quick and easy, they're pretty delicious and a great way to do them on the run.  I do admit that for the next round of these, I will be using some fresh mozzarella (perhaps my homemade stuff) because I think that would be a little more "stretchy" (not sure that's the right word to use).

Ingredients (makes 12 sticks):

• 12 pieces of string cheese
• 12 egg roll wrappers
• 1 egg 
• oil for deep frying
• marinara or spaghetti sauce for dipping

Directions:

1. Put egg in bowl and whisk in about 1t of water to make an egg wash.
2. Place a piece of string cheese near the bottom corner of one wrapper.  Fold bottom corner over the cheese and roll halfway.  In the middle, fold in the sides toward the center, over the cheese.  Lightly moisten the remaining corner of the wrapper with the egg wash, then continue to roll the cheese.
3. Repeat with the remaining 11 wrappers and cheese.
4. In a large pan, heat the oil to approximately 350 degrees.
5. Fry the sticks, a couple at a time, for 30-60 seconds on each side, until golden brown.  Drain each stick on a paper towel covered plate to remove excess oil.
6. Serve warm, with the marinara/spaghetti sauce.
