Instructions
Lay out the egg roll wrappers one at a time.
Place one piece of string cheese in the center near the edge, then arrange some pepperoni, sliced mushrooms and garlic around the cheese.
Roll up the string cheese a little, fold in the sides, then continue to roll up, and seal the edge by moistening with water. Repeat with remaining wrappers, cheese and fillings.
Heat oil in a large heavy skillet, or deep fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Fry enough to fit loosely in the pan, turning once after about 5 minutes. Continue to fry for 3 to 5 more minutes or until golden brown.
Warm the pasta sauce in a serving bowl in the microwave.
Serve the Pepperoni Pizza Sticks on a platter with the bowl of sauce for dipping.
Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio
Italian can be paired with Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio. Italians know food and they know wine. Trebbiano and Verdicchio are Italian white wines that pair well with fish and white meat, while Chianti is a great Italian red for heavier, bolder dishes. The Felsina Berardenga Chianti Classico ( Half-bottle) with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.

"Shows fresh berry, with hints of flowers, fresh herbs and chocolate. Full-bodied, with a fresh palate, well-integrated tannins and a balanced finish. Lots of cherry and light spice. Best after 2003."-Wine Spectator
