Whisk the eggs in a medium bowl. Cut the mozzarella into 1 x 2-inch pieces and dredge them first in the flour, then in the egg, and then in the breadcrumbs. Refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes. Take the breaded mozzarella slices and dip them into the egg again and then into the breadcrumbs again. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Fry the mozzarella slices in the hot oil, turning once, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping. Makes 6 to 8 servings.
