Ingredients

2 tbsp plain flour
3 tsp garlic powder
2 eggs
⅔ cup breadcrumbs
¼ cup cornflake crumbs
550 gram mozzarella
olive oil spray

Creamy avocado dipping sauce

1 avocado roughly chopped
⅓ cup lemon juice
¼ cup plain greek style yogurt
2 tbsp basil pesto
1 green onion roughly chopped

Instructions

Make your Creamy Avocado Dipping Sauce

Place the avocado, juice, yogurt, pesto, and onion in a small food processor.
Season well with salt and pepper, and process until smooth and combined.
Cover, and refrigerate until required.

Making the mozzarella chips

Line a large tray with baking paper.
Place flour and garlic powder in a shallow bowl. Season with salt.
Whisk eggs in a separate shallow bowl, and combine breadcrumbs in a bowl.
Cut the mozzarella into 2cm (0.78inches) - thick slices, then into sticks. Dip cheese in flour to coat, and shake off excess.
Working in batches, coat sticks in egg mixture then in breadcrumbs, and place on prepared tray.
Freeze for 1 hour or until firm.
Spray mozzarella stick liberally with oil. Line the air fryer basket with baking paper, leaving 1 cm (0.39 inches) edges to allow air to circulate.
Cook sticks at 180°C (356°F), in batches for 4 to 4 ½ minutes or until golden and crispy.
Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
