When I was very young my Italian Great Grandmother use to give us this treat (I guess to shut us up) while she was cooking. Now this calls for a sprinkle of sugar… BUT the beauty is you can fill them with sauce, mozzarella, meat, whatever you like. This is also great with any left over/unused pizza dough Ingredients:
pizza dough (your own or store bought) |
1 cup vegetable oil |
granulated sugar |
jelly (optional) |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in frying pan.
2. Break off ~2 pieces of dough.
3. Place in hot oil, cook until done (around 3-5 min and turning once).
4. Place on paper towel and let drain (1 min).
5. Sprinkle with granulated sugar.
6. Cut open and place in a teaspoon of jelly (optional), or just eat them as is.
7. -OR-.
8. Do not add sugar/jelly – let cool and just cut open place sauce/cheese/meat/whatever inside then bake in oven for ~3-5min (until done). It’s like having an extra good hot pocket LOL.
