Dolce Mozzarella al Burro Caramellato

Method

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a small oven-safe ceramic ramekin or baking dish with a touch of oil.

2. 2

   Carefully slice or cube the mozzarella cheese into uniform pieces, about 1-inch thick. Arrange them snugly in a single layer within your prepared baking dish.

3. 3

   Place the dish into the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the mozzarella is beautifully molten, soft, and just beginning to turn golden at the edges, bubbling gently.

4. 4

   While the cheese bakes, melt the Amul butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Watch closely as it melts, foams, and then the milk solids at the bottom begin to brown, releasing a rich, nutty aroma—this is your browned butter.

5. 5

   Once the butter achieves that delightful amber-brown hue, remove it from the heat. Stir in the granulated sugar and the tablespoon of water. Return to very low heat, stirring constantly until the sugar completely dissolves and forms a glistening, slightly thickened caramel glaze.

6. 6

   Carefully remove the bubbling mozzarella from the oven. The aroma of warm dairy will fill your kitchen.

7. 7

   Pour the warm, fragrant caramelized butter glaze generously over the soft, melted mozzarella. Ensure every luscious piece is coated in the sweet, nutty sauce.

8. 8

   Serve immediately, allowing each guest to enjoy a spoonful of the warm, yielding mozzarella cloaked in the irresistible caramelized butter.
