About the dish

These deep-fried Sardinian pastries combine wheat or semolina dough with a slightly savory cheese filling. Sebadas are typically round and come filled with the sweet and aromatic young Pecorino Sardo cheese. Primarily a frugal and rustic dish, especially beloved by shepherds, sebadas were originally a savory dish, but nowadays they represent a classic Sardinian dessert. They are traditionally served drizzled with honey (preferably of the Sardinian miele amaro variety) and dusted with sugar.
