Time 6h55m

Yield 1 pizza fritte

Number Of Ingredients 12

12.5 cups "00" flour
8 3/4 teaspoons sea salt
2.5 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 teaspoon active dry yeast
2 ounces ricotta
3 slices salami
6 to 8 pitted olives
1 tablespoon tomato sauce, plus additional for serving
1 ounce shredded fresh mozzarella
Oil, for frying
Fresh basil, for serving
Grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • For the dough: Mix together the flour, salt, oil, yeast and 4 1/3 cups room temperature water in a stand mixer for 25 to 30 minutes. Turn out into a large bowl and let rise 4 to 6 hours.
  • For the pizza fritte: Stretch out one 10-ounce piece of dough (save the remainder for another use). Place ricotta in center, then salami on top, followed by olives, sauce and mozzarella. Fold over dough to make a pocket and close. Seal shut.
  • Preheat some oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F. Fry the pizza, turning to make sure both sides cook evenly, until golden and heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Place on a plate and top with sauce, basil and Parmesan.

These calzones were delicious! I used a mix of mozzarella and cheddar cheese for the filling, and they turned out perfectly.

I wasn't impressed with these calzones. They were greasy and the filling was bland.

This recipe was a disaster! The dough was too sticky to work with, and the calzones fell apart when I tried to fry them.

Not bad, but not great either. The dough was a bit too thick for my taste, and the filling was a bit bland.

I've tried many calzone recipes, but this one is by far the best. The dough is so light and fluffy, and the filling is perfectly seasoned.
