Deep-fried pizza dough stuffed with ricotta, cicoli, and mozzarella puffs into golden perfection. A protein-packed mediterranean indulgence that's a beloved family tradition in Naples.
Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal balls and rest them covered for 15 minutes to relax the gluten.
Roll each dough ball into a 7-inch round on a lightly floured surface, making sure not to overwork the dough.
Combine ricotta, cicoli, mozzarella, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Place a generous spoonful of filling in the center of each round.
Fold the dough over the filling and crimp the edges tightly to seal, ensuring no air is trapped to prevent bursting during frying.
Heat the vegetable oil to 350°F in a deep fryer or pot. Fry each stuffed pizza for 3–4 minutes per side, turning until golden and puffed. Drain well and sprinkle with torn basil leaves before serving.
