    Can I fry a pizza and a meat pie?
    Rosemary Edghill
    Community Answer
    You can fry a pizza if you have a large enough pan. It won't really taste like baked pizza, but it will be edible. A meat pie needs the sides of a pan around it to keep it intact. If you're going to fry a really big meat pie, that could work for you. If you want to make a bunch of little ones, it's better to bake.
