Preparation

Mode

  1. In a bowl place the Parmesan cheese, cornmeal, wheat flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, egg, milk, butter and mix well
  2. Knead the dough until smooth and homogeneous.
  3. Wrap in plastic wrap and take to rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  4. I left it resting for 1 hour.
  5. In another bowl mix the mozzarella, the Friato ham and the oregano and set aside.
  6. After the dough rest time, remove the plastic wrap and divide the dough into two or more parts.
  7. Place a piece of the dough between two long sheets of parchment paper or clean, dry plastic bags and roll the dough very thin with a rolling pin.
  8. Be careful not to leave it too thin and end up breaking when closing the pastry.
  9. With a round cutter or with the mouth of a cup cut 11 cm diameter discs of the dough.
  10. Place a portion of ham filling in the center of each disk (about 1 tablespoon), fold it in half in a half moon and close tightening the edges so that the sides are unified.
  11. (you can give another finish to the edges of the pastries, like using a fork or closing them like an empanada).
  12. Repeat this process with all the dough.
  13. Fry the pastries in hot oil until golden brown.
  14. Remove and drain on absorbent paper.
  15. So just serve this delight to your guests!
