Place a wonton wrapper point side towards you. Sprinkle lightly with garlic powder and a pinch of salt. Place 1/2 mozzarella stick on the end. Roll up halfway, fold in the sides and then continue rolling. Dip your finger in water and rub it over the end to seal the mozzarella stick into a cigar shape. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and mozzarella sticks.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Freeze Before Frying 🧊Freeze your wrapped mozzarella sticks for at least 2 hours (preferably overnight) to prevent the cheese from leaking out during air frying and ensure a perfectly melted interior with crispy exterior.
- Double Wrap Technique 🌯Wrap each mozzarella stick with two wonton wrappers, sealing them tightly with water, to create an extra-crispy shell that contains the cheese and prevents bursting.
- Light Oil Spray Strategy 💨Lightly spray both sides of wrapped sticks with olive oil cooking spray and sprinkle with garlic powder before air frying for optimal crispiness and enhanced flavor without excess oil.
- Temperature and Timing Sweet Spot ⏱️Air fry at 380°F for exactly 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, to achieve golden-brown wontons while keeping the mozzarella creamy but not exploding.
- Sauce Pairing Strategy 🍅Warm your marinara sauce in a small bowl while frying and serve it at the same temperature as the mozzarella sticks for better flavor fusion and a more restaurant-quality dipping experience.
