Mozzarella in carrozz (mozzarella and Parma ham-fried sandwich)

1. Beat the eggs and Parmesan together and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

3. Dip the sandwiches in the egg and Parmesan mixture.

4. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and fry the sandwiches on both sides for about 1 minute, until the mozzarella is melted and the sandwiches are crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper and serve immediately.
