1. Wrap each mozzarella ball in slice of prosciutto for option #2.
2. Dredge each ball first in flour, then in the beaten eggs and lastly roll in the breadcrumbs. Roll once more in the eggs and the breadcrumbs.
3. Heat canola oil to 350 degrees and fry until golden brown. place three slices of tomato on a plate in a triangle for plating. put a small amount of pesto on each tomato and drizzle with olive oil and vinegar.
