Making the mozzarella chips
Line a large tray with baking paper.
Place flour and garlic powder in a shallow bowl. Season with salt.
Whisk eggs in a separate shallow bowl, and combine breadcrumbs in a bowl.
Cut the mozzarella into 2cm (0.78inches) - thick slices, then into sticks. Dip cheese in flour to coat, and shake off excess.
Working in batches, coat sticks in egg mixture then in breadcrumbs, and place on prepared tray.
Freeze for 1 hour or until firm.
Spray mozzarella stick liberally with oil. Line the air fryer basket with baking paper, leaving 1 cm (0.39 inches) edges to allow air to circulate.
Cook sticks at 180°C (356°F), in batches for 4 to 4 ½ minutes or until golden and crispy.
Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
