Panzerotti

I really like when the sun wakes me up in the morning. Enormous amount of energy runs through my body and inspiring breakfast is on the table in no time. The smell of the freshly baked panzerottis slowly awakes all family members with a smile. Just look at these nice bubbly stuffed buns and imagine them for breakfast in your home.


Ingredients for the dough

  • 1 small pack of yeast
  • 1/4 cup of warm water
  • 2 tbsp of sugar
  • 1½ cup of lukewarm milk
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup of sunflower oil
  • 5 cup of flour
Method
Put the yeast into the bowl with the warm water, sugar and 1 cup of flour. Stir it slightly and leave it to bubble - 5 minutes. Add beaten eggs, milk, salt and as you stir slowly add flour until the dough forms a ball. Oil comes the last to help you with the sticky dough :-). Cover the dough and leave it in the warm place to rise for an hour.

Roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thick, flat, big square and cut circles - about 6 inches a piece. Put 1 tbsp of grated salami and 1 tbsp of grated cheese onto each little square and fold it in half sticking the ends, but be sure that the stuffing stays inside the little bag of dough you have made. Carefully do the same to all the other circles, and pay attention that if the dough doesn't stick the cheese will come out during frying and will burn and smell and sprinkle around :-(. Heat the deep oil on 360 F degrees and slide the doughnuts in, one by one. Fry them until they get brownish color. Place them on the napkin to soak up excess oil.
