Take note
Handling hot ingredients and using hot oil can be dangerous. Be sure to exercise caution and use appropriate safety measures throughout the cooking process.

1

Prep the Mozzarella and Tomato Sauce

In a saucepan, heat up your favorite tomato sauce on low heat. Once warmed, stir in some shredded mozzarella cheese until fully melted and well combined. Set the sauce aside for later.

2

Prepare the Doughnut Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, salt, and melted butter. Slowly add warm water, while continuously stirring, until the dough comes together. Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.

3

Shape and Fill the Doughnuts

Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release any air bubbles. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Use a round cookie cutter or a drinking glass to cut out doughnut shapes. Place a small spoonful of the mozzarella and tomato sauce mixture in the center of each doughnut circle. Fold the edges over the filling and pinch to seal. Repeat with remaining dough.

4

Fry the Doughnuts

Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 375°F (190°C). Carefully lower each filled doughnut into the hot oil and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked doughnuts to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

5

Serve and Enjoy!

Once the doughnuts have cooled slightly, it's time to enjoy this mouthwatering creation! Serve them warm on their own or with a side of extra tomato sauce for dipping. The combination of savory cheese and sweet doughnut is sure to wow your taste buds.
