EASY FRIED DOUGH (PIZZA FRITTE)

Steps:

• 1. Pour about 1" of oil into frying pan, and heat to medium-high. (A tip for knowing when your oil is ready: tear off a tiny piece of bread and when it floats to the top and has bubbly sides it's ready. You don't want it sinking to the bottom.)
• 2. Place dough on floured board and press down to even out a bit. Cut into 8 equal pieces. Put a little flour on your hands (so the dough won't stick) and gently stretch out the dough as far as it will go, without ripping it.
• 3. Carefully place into the hot oil, cook about a minute (goes fast) or until the side down is golden, then turn over and brown the other side. (Never leave the stove when you're frying something. I learned the hard way, and burned down my first house. Yeah, true story!)
• 4. Use tongs to remove onto a paper towel or brown paper bag, to drain off any excess oil. Immediately sprinkle on cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar or spread on some butter, and various other toppings, if desired. Serve warm.
• 5. Your choice of toppings are endless: Powdered sugar Granulated sugar Cinnamon sugar Butter Jam Honey

FRIED PIZZA DOUGH (PIZZA FRITTA)

Steps:

• Prepare one recipe of easiest no knead pizza dough until step #4.
• Scrape the dough onto a floured surface and use floured hands to flatten into a rectangle. Fold the two sides edges toward the center. Then fold the top and bottom edges toward the center. Gather the dough into a ball and place seam side down in a lightly greased bowl. Let sit one hour.
• Use floured hands to divide the dough into 8 balls (or less if you prefer larger portions). Cover and let sit 20 minutes longer.
• Heat olive oil over medium heat in a medium sized non-stick or cast iron skillet. Use your finger tips to flatten the dough into a circle. Avoid adding too much flour to your work surface at this point as the extra flour in the skillet tends to burn.
• Place the dough in the hot skillet. Fry for 1-2 minutes until golden and puffy. Flip it over and cook 1-2 minutes longer. Transfer to a paper towel covered tray to absorb excess oil.
• Continue with the remaining pieces of dough. Add extra olive oil to the pan as needed.
• Serve hot.
