Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • pie dough
Make another batch of the pie dough with no sugar and rest it in the fridge an hour.
  • full fat mozzarella
  • pre-cooked chicken sausage
Shred the full fat mozzarella, chilling it in the freezer about 20 minutes first to make it easier.
Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface and pound and roll it to a large round about four-ish centimetres thick, as transcribed.
Cutting and sealing the pastry pockets
Cut into miniature rounds with a four and a half inch biscuit cutter.
  • full fat ricotta
  • tomato sauce
Into each round place a tiny dab of sauce, a pressed-together mound of mozzarella, a dollop of full fat ricotta and a couple of pieces of sausage.
  • water
Wet the outside edge as a sealant, tuck the filling into the pocket and press the edge down to seal, then crimp. Work quickly before the butter melts so the layers survive.
  • 1 quart oil
Heat about a quart of oil in a cast-iron skillet to 350F and fry one and a half to two minutes per side.
Drain and cool about five minutes before eating.
