Deep-Fried Mini Calzones
Ingredients
for 14 servings
PIZZA DOUGH
1 ⅓ cups warm water
1 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast
3 ½ cups flour, divided
¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
FILLING
2 cups tomato sauce, divided
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
1 cup fresh basil, chopped, divided
1 salt, to taste
1 oil, for frying
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped, to serve
Preparation
- In a liquid measuring cup, sprinkle the yeast over the warm water. Set aside for 5 minutes to bloom.
- In a bowl, add 3 cups (375 g) of the flour, Parmesan, baking powder, salt, and sugar, and stir to combine.
- Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and stir to combine. Pour the yeast water over the flour mixture and stir until the dough forms into a ball.
- Use remaining flour for dusting the surface. Scrape the dough out of the bowl onto your floured surface.
- Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until the dough is tight and form the dough into a ball.
- Pour 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl. Place the dough in the bowl.
- Cover, let rise for 1 hour in a warm area, or until the dough has doubled in size.
- Flour the surface. Flip bowl over surface and let the dough fall out of the bowl. Cut the dough into 2-inch (5-cm) pieces. Roll into balls.
- Begin forming the dough into a circle about ½-inch (1 ¼-cm) thick and 5 inches(12-cm) wide, making sure the middle of the circle is not too thin. Repeat with the other balls of dough.
- Spoon 1 tablespoon of tomato sauce on to the center of the dough.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons mozzarella, then 1 tablespoon basil. Season with salt.
- Fold the dough over the fillings and seal. Pinch the edge of the dough together and fold back. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
- Heat 2 inches (5 cm) of oil until the temperature reaches 365˚F (185˚C).
- Fry the calzones 2 at a time for about 3 minutes on each side. Remove from oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Place a bowl filled with the rest of the tomato sauce on the plate.
- Sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately.
- Enjoy!
