Ingredients
- One batch of pizza dough preferably homemade
- olive oil for frying
For the toppings:
- mozzarella
- anchovy fillets
- marinara sauce
- oregano
- eggplant cut into small cubes and deep fried
- Salame cut into small dice
- fresh basil
Instructions
- All you need to do is to take some pizza dough, either homemade or store-bought, and form it into balls about the size of a golfball. You then flatten each ball out into small round, leaving a slight lip around its edges—or, as I mentioned in the post on calzoncini, you can use a tortilla press to do the job in much less time. In fact, I prefer the tortilla press as it will make the dough thinner than at least I can manage with my hands.
- As you form each round, fry it in hot oil until it is lightly browned on both sides, preferably olive oil but if that's too rich for you, vegetable oil, or a combination of the two, will do fine. Don't brown the dough too much, as it will brown further in the oven later on.
- As they are done, place them on a rack (or paper towels) to drain.
- Now it's time to get creative. You place these little fried pizza rounds on a cookie sheet and top them with whatever strikes your fancy—basically anything you'd put on a pizza, you can put on a pizzetta. A fried pizza round can also be made in bianco (without tomato) with cheese or other toppings.
- Once you've assembled your pizzette, drizzle them with a bit of olive oil and season with salt, then pop them in a hot oven (200C/400C) for about 5 minutes or so, just until they warmed through and the cheese (if any) has melted.
