Method
Preparing the Dough
Mix and Rise
In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the flour. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
Frying and Flavoring
Prepare the Garlic Butter
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Add chopped parsley and remove from heat.
Fry the Dough
After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle. Cut into strips. Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the dough strips until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Coat with Garlic Butter
Toss the fried dough sticks in the garlic butter mixture and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese while still warm.
Making the Pizza Sauce
Combine Ingredients
In a small saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add crushed tomatoes, garlic powder, oregano, and salt. Let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
