Method

Cut the semi-firm white cheese into ten sticks of about 25 g. Roll the pizza dough to about 2–3 mm thick and cut into ten long strips.
Wrap each stick in a spiral, slightly overlapping the turns and sealing the ends. Leave no gaps. Beat the egg and brush a thin layer on the outside.
Preheat the empty air fryer for 5 minutes at 180°C. Cook two batches of five spaced-out sticks for 8–10 minutes at 180°C, turning after 6 minutes. The dough must be cooked at the overlaps too; if wet inside, add 1–2 minutes.
Rest for 3 minutes and serve two per person. The cheese should be hot and elastic, not melted into a liquid flooding the basket.
