  • 6 servings
  • 30 minutes

What you need

  • 500g plain flour
  • 300ml water
  • 5g dry instant yeast
  • 40ml olive oil
  • 11g salt
  • 150g passata
  • 1tbsp olive oil
  • 1tsp dry oregano
  • Salt and pepper as taste
  • A pinch sugar
  • 2 Primula Cheese tubes
  • 70g ham
  • 70g salami

How you do it

  1. Mix the water, salt, and olive oil in a jug.

  2. Sift the flour into a stand mixer bowl and add the dry yeast. Hook attachment, mix at low speed for a few minutes, pour the water mixture slowly, and continue mixing everything at medium/low speed.

  3. Once you have obtained a malleable dough, transfer it to a lightly floured work surface and knead it for about ten minutes to develop the gluten mesh, allowing you to get a pliable dough.

  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with clingfilm or a tea towel and let it rise in the oven for two hours.

  5. Season the passata with 1 tbsp of olive oil, salt, pepper, sugar, and oregano.

  6. When the quantity of the dough has tripled, divide it into six equal balls and work one portion at a time, keeping the others in the bowl covered.

  7. Roll out the first ball of the dough into a small disc and transfer it to a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Spread a few tablespoons of passata on half the freshly rolled dough disc, then cover with salami slices and Primula Cheese. Fold the dough like a book to form a half-moon and seal the edges well to create a nice ledge. Repeat, filling some with ham.

  8. Bake the mini calzones in a preheated fan oven at 180°C for 15-20 minutes or at 160°C in an air fryer for 12-16 minutes.

  9. Serve the mini calzones warm or store them in an air-tight container overnight and consume them the next day.
