Friggitelli with buffalo-milk mozzarella & anchovies

Method

1. Wash and dry the peppers very thoroughly.
2. Heat 3 to 4 spoonfuls of oil in a large non-stick pan and lightly fry them in hot boiling oil (beware of the oil spitting) until they become softer. Drain on kitchen towel and season to taste with salt.
3. Cut the buffalo-milk mozzarella bites in half.
4. Onto each stick skewer a rolled anchovy, a 'friggitello' bent in half and a mozzarella bite with the cut side facing down.
