Panzarotti
Panzarotti is a delicious Italian fried or baked turnover filled with cheese, tomato sauce, and other ingredients like meats or vegetables. It's similar to a calzone or a fried pizza pocket.
Ingredients
- 1 pound pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce
Your choice of fillings:
- sausage cooked
- pepperoni
- mushrooms
- bell peppers
- Oil for frying
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your deep fryer or a pot with oil to 350°F (180°C).
- Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion out into a circle.
- On one half of each dough circle, layer cheese, tomato sauce, and your choice of fillings, leaving a border around the edge.
- Fold the other half of the dough over the filling and press the edges together to seal.
- Crimp the edges with a fork to ensure they are well sealed.
- Carefully lower each panzarotti into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Remove from the oil and let drain on paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
