Calzone di Nonna Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Make a good dough and let it rise until it has about doubled in size.
  • Cut the salami-slices in 4-6 pieces each and fry them lightly until the oil starts oozing out. Remove salami from the pan. Add two minced cloves of garlic and fry off the beef in the remaining fat. Sprinkle over some salt. Remove mince from pan
  • Fry the onions and peppers lightly so the worst of the moisture is taken out. This keeps the crust crispier later on.
  • Divide the dough in 4 pieces and roll each piece into a nice round. Spread half of each round with some tomato sauce, except for a border of about an inch. Divide the meats and vegetables over the tomato sauce, sprinkle with oregano and olives.
  • Spread most of the cheese on top. Make a paste of some water and a bit of flour and brush the rim of the dough all around. Flip over the uncovered piece of dough and seal the rim by pressing firmly together. Top with the remaining cheese
  • Bake the calzones in the hottest possible oven. I like to use a heated pizza-stone to get the bottom extra crispy and bake mine about 10 minutes at 250 degrees C.

    This sounds fun. I have been letting my bread machine make dough for me. Maybe I'll do this by hand. I love the ingredients. Thank you. L.

    What I usually do is make a double batch of dough and freeze half (before rising) in a zip-up-freezer bag (don't know how you guys call these). I form the dough into a ball, lightly oil the outside (makes it easy to get all the dough out of the bag) and push it flat after I've zipped up the bag. If you remove this from the freezer in the evening before you want to make a pizza (or anything else doughy for that matter) to thaw in the fridge you just have to leave it on the counter for half an hour or so to rise and then roll out and presto!
    Even if you forget to take it out the evening before, thawing it on the counter in the morning and transferring the dough to a covered container to rise also works.

    I absolutely adore calzone! I usually put just ham and cheese in mine. I buy frozen pizza dough, so I appreciate the recipe for making my own dough.
