Pizza Calzone with smoked sausages and mushrooms

Italian classics on your table! Simple, fast and tasty. Calzone means "pants" in Italian. This is a closed pizza made from thin dough with lots of toppings. This type of pizza is often baked in the central and southern regions of Italy. The filling for a calzone can be anything, even sweet. Traditionally, everything that was found on the household was placed in it. The most important thing is not to forget about the cheese!

Step-by-step preparation

  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    Set of products.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Chop the basil and add to the sauce. Stir and set aside, let it sit. Let’s make the dough. Pour warm water into a bowl, add salt, sugar and yeast.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Mix. Then add flour.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Knead the dough first with a spoon, then with your hands. Halfway through mixing, add olive oil. No eggs, no milk and kefir!

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    You can knead the dough in a bowl or on the table. Do not get carried away with flour, otherwise the dough will clog and be hard. It took me exactly 250 g of flour. This is how the dough turned out. Put it in a bowl, cover with a damp cloth and put it in a warm place for an hour.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    In the meantime, let's get to the filling. Chop the mushrooms and lightly fry in oil. I never wash champignon and oyster mushrooms, I just wipe them with a damp cloth. Then they turn out fried, not stewed.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Cut the sausages into pieces.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Olives into several parts.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Grate the cheese.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    Peel the tomatoes and cut into slices.

  11. STEP 11

    STEP 11

    Our dough has risen and wants to get out!

  12. STEP 12

    STEP 12

    Turn on the oven to the maximum (I have 220 degrees). Remove the dough from the bowl, divide it into two parts. Knead each part and roll it into a thin circle.

  13. STEP 13

    STEP 13

    Spread a thin layer of sauce on one half of the circle.

  14. STEP 14

    STEP 14

    Then add the filling in layers, starting with the sausages.

  15. STEP 15

    STEP 15

    mushrooms

  16. STEP 16

    STEP 16

    olives and tomatoes.

  17. STEP 17

    STEP 17

    Sprinkle with cheese.

  18. STEP 18

    STEP 18

    Press the filling well, cover with the other half of the dough and carefully pinch with a pigtail so that our sauce does not leak out and all remains inside.

  19. STEP 19

    STEP 19

    We place our panties on a baking sheet (I lined it with a baking sheet) and make several cuts.

  20. STEP 20

    STEP 20

    Grease the top with sauce and place the baking sheet in the heated oven.

  21. STEP 21

    STEP 21

    No need to proof the pizza! This is another difference from Russian pie. Bake for about 20 minutes until the edges begin to turn golden. The most important thing is not to choke at this time from the mind-blowing smell! :)) Do the same with the second half of the dough.

  22. STEP 22

    STEP 22

    We put our creation on a large beautiful dish.

  23. STEP 23

    STEP 23

    We cut it into portions and treat everyone at home with white wine and Italian songs! Good luck with your baking and bon appetit! P.S. If you have a large oven, you can bake both pizzas at the same time.

IrenDV, what delicious Italian “pants” they must have turned out to be! Covered pizzas are very convenient to transport, great to take to nature, on a train trip, or on trips! You can change the fillings, the main thing is that there is cheese everywhere and always! Thank you very much for the recipe!!!
