Coccoli Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add water until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Fry the Coccoli

    Divide the rested dough into small balls (about the size of a golf ball). Flatten each ball slightly and carefully drop them into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Coccoli

    Once the coccoli are fried, slice them open and fill with Stracchino cheese and slices of prosciutto. Serve immediately while warm.
