Description

This is something you will hardly ever find outside of the South of Italy… Basically these are soft balls of dough, fried!

Ingredients

  • 1-½ cup Water, Divided Use
  • 1-½ teaspoon Instant Yeast
  • 1-½ cup All Purpose Flour, divided use
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • Canola Oil, For Frying And For Coating The Dough
  • 1 Tablespoon Capers
  • ½ cans Chopped Tomatoes (200g)

Preparation

Take 1 cup of warm water and pour on top the yeast. Wait 10 minutes for the yeast to dissolve.

Take one cup of flour, place it in a bowl with salt. Add the olive oil. Slowly add in the water/yeast mixture and mix well till you get a really soft and sticky dough.

Drizzle a little canola oil in a bowl. Then add the ball of dough, toss it around to coat it in oil.

Cover bowl of dough in plastic wrap and put in a warm place and let dough rise for at least 2 hours. After the 2 hours the dough must have been doubled in size.

Now you can add the tomatoes (chopped) and capers. Incorporate slowly to the dough and mix gently.

In a high sided saucepan pour some canola oil and heat it up. When the oil starts boiling, with a tablespoon, drop in balls of dough and fry until they get a golden brown color. Then remove and enjoy warm!
