Rimini

This Rimini-style fried pizza is a sophisticated take on Italian street food, offering a unique texture that sits somewhere between a traditional pizza and a crisp flatbread. By shallow-frying the dough in olive oil, you achieve a beautiful golden crunch that contrasts perfectly with the creamy, melted mozzarella. It is a wonderful choice for those looking for a high-protein meal that feels truly indulgent, making it a spectacular centrepiece for a weekend brunch or a casual dinner with friends.

The toppings bring a refined balance of flavours, combining the savoury depth of prosciutto cotto and lardo with the bright, tangy notes of squacquerone cheese. Using a poolish-based starter for your dough ensures a light, airy finish that doesn't feel heavy. Serve these warm wedges immediately, finished with sharp shavings of cold pecorino, to enjoy the interplay of temperatures and textures that makes this regional speciality so distinctive.

Ingredients for Rimini

  • 1 (230g /225-gram) ball Master Dough , preferably with starter, made with Poolish

  • Semolina, for dusting

  • 120ml (112 grams) olive oil, or more as needed

  • 1-15g (45 grams) whole-milk mozzarella cheese, shredded (30g plus 2 tablespoons )

  • 30g (30 grams) thinly shaved lardo

  • 1-15g (45 grams) squacquerone cheese

  • 6 thin slices (60g /55 grams) prosciutto cotto

  • Small piece young Pecorino Romano cheese, cold, for shaving

Remove the dough ball from the refrigerator and leave wrapped at room temperature until the dough warms to 16°C to 18°C.

Line a large dinner plate with paper towels. Pour the oil into a 12-inch cast-iron skillet and have a lid and a pair of tongs nearby.

Dust a work surface near the stove with semolina, then move the dough to the surface and dust the top.

Press out the dough into a flat disk and roll it out into an 11-1/2-inch round.

Heat the oil in the skillet over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes, until very hot with ripples covering the surface. Gently lift the dough and lower the bottom of one edge into the side of the pan closest to you, then lower the remaining dough into the pan. Cook for about 2 minutes, using tongs to check the bottom often and to rotate the dough as needed to brown evenly. If bubbles form on the top of the dough, pierce them gently with the tongs.

When the bottom is golden brown, turn the dough over. Immediately sprinkle the mozzarella evenly over the surface and cover the pan. Cook for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the bottom of the dough is a rich golden brown. Using the tongs, reach to the centre of the pizza and transfer it to the towel-lined plate to drain briefly.

Transfer the pizza to the cutting board and cut into 6 wedges. Scatter the lardo and pinches of the squacquerone evenly over the top. Drape a slice of prosciutto cotto on each slice and garnish with shavings of the pecorino.
