 Panzerotti | Status Approved | | Name |  Panzerotti | | Category | Appetizers & Snacks, Italian | | Serves/Yields | 4 | | Difficulty | Easy | | Introduction | | Tasty little filled pillows make a nice appetizer or between meal snack.
Note: In Italy Guido tells me you can buy balls of frozen pizza dough. Use your favorite dough recipe or purchase frozen unbaked crusts. | | Ingredients | | 2 Balls Basic Pizza Dough Defrosted
1 1/4 Cups Diced Tomatoes , or Prepared Tomato Sauce
10 oz. Mozzarella Cheese, Thinly Sliced
Salt And Pepper
2 Tablespoons Fresh Basil , Finely Chopped
Oil For Frying | | Directions | | Step: 1 | If using fresh tomatoes, place in a small pot and cook until they produce a thick sauce, about 10 minutes. Take the prepared dough after the first rising, and shape it into a long loaf, and divide it into 12 parts. Roll each of these parts on a lightly floured surface into a 3-4 inch diameter circle. Place a spoonful of tomato mixture on each circle, sprinkle with fresh basil, salt and pepper and cover with a slice of mozzarella. Lightly moisten the edges with water and pinch to seal. Fry in batches until golden brown. Drain well on paper towels and serve hot. |
