Fried pizza has roots in the resourcefulness of Neapolitan families after World War II, when access to ovens and traditional pizza ingredients was limited. Frying was a cheaper and faster alternative. Fried dough variations also exist in Scotland, where they were popularized in chip shops.

The flavors of fried pizza or dough vary greatly depending on the toppings and filling. Typically, you can expect a combination of savory and sometimes sweet elements, with the crispy, oily dough providing a foundation.
The dough itself, when fried, develops a slightly sweet, yeasty flavor and a crisp, golden-brown exterior. In Naples, fried pizza might be filled with ricotta cheese, ciccioli (pressed pork fat), or tomato sauce. In Scotland, fried dough might be topped with salt, vinegar, or brown sauce, resulting in a savory, tangy flavor profile. Others variations can include cheese, meat, vegetables or sweet toppings such as sugar and cinnamon.

Oil Temperature
Maintain a consistent oil temperature (around 350-375°F or 175-190°C) for even cooking. Too low, and the dough will be greasy; too high, and it will burn before cooking through.
Dough Consistency
The dough should be properly proofed and slightly sticky but manageable. Over-handling can result in tough dough. A slightly wetter dough will result in a lighter, airier fried texture.
Drain Thoroughly
After frying, drain the pizza or dough on paper towels to remove excess oil and maintain its crispy texture.
Use High Quality Ingredients
Use high quality ingredients for the dough and the toppings/fillings. This will result in a much better taste.
