Ingredients for Pettole with cherry tomatoes

  • 7 g fresh yeast
  • 300 g flour
  • 280 ml water (lukewarm)
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 180 g cherry tomatoes
  • 40 g grated parmesan cheese
  • 80 g black olives (pitted)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 350 ml vegetable oil (for frying)

How to prepare Fritters with cherry tomatoes and black olives

  • Dissolve the fresh yeast in a bowl with lukewarm water. Gradually add the flour while continuing to stir with a fork. Add the salt and extra virgin olive oil. Mix well and thoroughly until you have a very smooth and soft dough.

  • Wash the cherry tomatoes and chop them into small pieces, removing the internal liquid. Also, cut the black olives into rings. Add the olives, cherry tomatoes, grated parmesan cheese, and chopped basil leaves to the dough. Mix well and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise for 3 hours in a warm place.

  • Heat plenty of vegetable oil in a small deep pan. To check the oil temperature, I dip the handle of a wooden spoon, and when bubbles form around it, the temperature is right.

  • Drop spoonfuls of the dough into the hot oil and let them brown on all sides. Remove the Fritters with a slotted spoon and let them drain on paper towels.
