Pizza Fritta Recipes

PIZZA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. In a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until tender, 5 minutes, then add spinach. Cook until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes, and season with salt.
• In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, oregano, and milk and season with salt and pepper. Pour eggs over vegetables in skillet and cook until edges are cooked, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Top with cheese and pepperoni and transfer to the oven to bake until eggs are cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes more.

PIZZA FRITTA

Steps:

• Make your dough, proving it for 1 hour, rather than overnight, and your Hero tomato sauce. When the time's up, divide the dough into 12 balls on a flour-dusted surface, dust them with flour, cover with a clean damp tea towel, and rest for 10 minutes.
• One at a time, press out a ball of dough with your fingers, stretching and flattening it into a 15cm round. Finely grate the Parmesan and beat with the ricotta, then add a heaped spoonful to your dough round. Tear over a little mozzarella, season, push a few basil leaves into the top, then fold over the dough to seal the filling inside. Press down to stick, twisting and tucking the dough, if needed, like pizza ravioli! Repeat.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large, sturdy pan over a medium-high heat. Drop in a cube of potato and when it's golden and rises to the surface, the oil is ready. I'm not a lover of deep-frying but it does give the best results here - please be careful. Working in batches, lower in two fritte to cook for 1½ minutes on each side, or until golden. Remove to a plate lined with kitchen paper to drain, then let the oil come back up to temperature before adding the next two. Warm the tomato sauce and serve on the side for dunking. Sprinkle more fresh basil leaves over the fritte, to serve.

• Place in hot oil, cook until done (around 3-5 min and turning once).
• Place on paper towel and let drain (1 min).
• Sprinkle with granulated sugar.
• Cut open and place in a teaspoon of jelly (optional), or just eat them as is.
• --OR--.
• Do not add sugar/jelly - let cool and just cut open place sauce/cheese/meat/whatever inside then bake in oven for ~3-5min (until done). It's like having an extra good hot pocket LOL.

• Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over low heat. Cook garlic until soft, 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, mint, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; simmer, breaking up tomatoes with a spoon, 5 minutes.

PIZZA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Whisk the eggs and egg whites with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and stir with a rubber spatula until curds begin to form, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the broiler; broil until set but not browned, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
• Spread the marinara sauce over the eggs, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top with the mozzarella, pepperoni and parmesan. Return to the broiler until the cheese is bubbling, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
• Whisk the vinegar with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add the salad greens and bell pepper; toss. Sprinkle the frittata with basil and cut into wedges. Serve with the salad and bread.
