Description
Panzerotti su kao džepovi sreće – pržena ili pečena peciva punjena sirom i paradajzom, koja krckaju pod prstima i cure iznutra. Ovo nije fast food. Ovo je nona’s “you missed lunch? no problem” rešenje – zlatno, toplo i potpuno neodoljivo.

Seal the edges tight – or you’ll end up with an oil bath and zero cheese inside. Grandma used a fork. So should you.
