A Burger that uses fried dough as the buns and is topped with tomato sauce and powdered sugar.
Servings: 4 burgers
Ingredients
- 1 batch pizza dough homemade or store bought
- oil for frying
- 4 BUBBA Burgers
- 1 cup tomato sauce store bought or homemade
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan or pecorino romano cheese
- 4 slices provolone
- powdered sugar
Instructions
- Allow the dough to come to room temperature and roll out flat 4 inch rounds of dough. Brush with oil and allow to rest for 20 minutes.
- Bring about 1 inch of oil to 350 degrees in a frying pan.
- Fry the dough in batches, about 2 minutes per side, until puffy and golden brown.
- Meanwhile, preheat a grill or frying pan to medium high heat. Add the bubba burgers and season with salt and pepper.
- Cook about 6-8 minutes covered, until the juices begin to collect on top of the burger. Flip and cook another 4 minutes, then add the provolone cheese on top. Continue to cook until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked through.
- Warm the sauce in the microwave or on the stovetop in a pan. Place the bottom buns down and add some sauce, followed by some grated cheese.
- Top the bottom buns with the burgers, then add more sauce and grated cheese.
- Top with the top buns. Add some powdered sugar to a mesh strainer and gently dust the tops of the burgers with the sugar. Serve!
