Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 g All-purpose flour
- 7 g Active dry yeast
- 1 tsp Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Salt
- 250 ml Warm water
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 100 g Ham, thinly sliced
- 100 g Salami, thinly sliced
- 150 g Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 100 g Ricotta cheese
- 50 g Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp Oregano, dried
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 Egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 200 ml Tomato sauce (optional, for dipping)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Gradually add the warm water and olive oil, mixing until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Punch the risen dough down and divide it into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a circular shape about 6-8 inches in diameter.
In a bowl, mix the shredded mozzarella, ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan, oregano, and black pepper. Set aside.
On one half of each dough circle, layer slices of ham, salami, and a generous amount of the cheese mixture, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
Fold the empty half of the dough over the filling to form a semicircle. Press the edges together, then crimp and fold them to seal tightly.
Transfer the calzones to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg to ensure a golden-brown crust during baking.
Bake the calzones in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the calzones from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with tomato sauce for dipping, if desired.
