A classic Italian appetizer that my mother used to make for special occasions throughout my childhood and recently reignited my love for it while we were in Italy and saw them on the menu while out to dinner. My mother was with us and I started asking her about them and suddenly we were going through memory lane all about my childhood, birthdays and any event where she’d make these along with many other little pizzas and appetizers for our friends and family. These are sensational, a tiny bit labor intensive but not difficult, you basically make a pasta dish, let it set then cut, batter and fry and they are worth every bit of effort you put into it. Reserve these for a special occasion or when you have time on your hands to play in the kitchen with the most delicious reward awaiting you at the end.

RECIPE:
For the Béchamel:
4 Tbsp of All Purpose Flour
4 Tbsp of Unsalted Butter
2 cups of Milk
Salt and Pepper to taste
Pinch of Nutmeg (optional)

8oz of Bucatini, uncooked
1/2 cup of Frozen Peas
2 Tbsp of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3oz of Mozzarella, dry packed, diced

Salt and Pepper to taste

1 cup of all All Purpose Flour
