Pizza fritta is Naples' fried answer to the oven. The dough is stuffed with ricotta, cicoli, provola and a little tomato, sealed, and dropped into hot oil until it puffs gold. It is street food first: handheld, hot, eaten from paper. Did you know? It spread in the lean years after the Second World War, when wood and ovens were scarce and frying was cheaper, a scene immortalized by Sophia Loren in the film L'Oro di Napoli. It shares its roots with classic Neapolitan pizza. The places below keep the tradition alive, from old friggitorie to kitchens giving it a second look. We ordered them by what people who came for it actually said, not by nostalgia.

Pizza Fritta pizza FAQ
What is pizza fritta?
Pizza fritta is Naples' fried pizza. The dough is filled or topped and deep-fried rather than baked, giving a crisp, blistered shell around a soft interior. Classic fillings include ricotta, provola, cicoli (pork cracklings) and tomato. It is a Neapolitan street food born in the lean post-war years when ovens and ingredients were scarce.
