Hawaiian Mini Calzones Recipe By Tasty

CLASSIC MEAT LOVER'S CALZONES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the dough: In a medium bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, flour, and salt. Mix with a rubber spatula until well-combined and the dough comes together into a ball.
• Lightly flour a clean surface, then turn the dough out and knead for 1-2 minutes to smooth and encourage gluten development. Shape the dough into a ball.
• Drizzle the olive oil in a clean large bowl. Add the dough ball and turn to coat in the oil. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
• Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• While the dough is rising, make the filling: Add the sausage to a medium nonstick pan over medium heat and cook until no longer pink, 5-6 minutes. Add the onion, salt, and pepper and continue to cook until the sausage is browned, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• After the dough has risen, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 4 portions, then roll each into and round about ¼-inch (½ cm) thick.
• Spread ¼ of the sauce over one half of each dough round, leaving a ½-inch (1 cm) border along the edge. Top each one with 2 slices of ham, 5 pepperoni, ¼ of the sausage and onion mixture, and ¼ cup (25 G) of mozzarella cheese.
• Lightly beat the egg with a pinch of salt. Brush the egg wash on the border of the dough, fold the other half over, and press the edges together. Starting from one corner, fold the dough over itself in a twist. Tuck the other corner underneath. Transfer the calzones to the prepared baking sheet. Brush lightly with egg wash and score the tops with a knife to allow steam to escape.
• Bake for 15-17 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes.
• Serve the calzones with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F with your baking stone set inside for 30 minutes.

Spread the ham and pineapple over half of the dough and top that with shredded mozzarella cheese. Fold the dough over to form a pocket and press the edges to seal.
• Slide the calzone onto the baking stone and bake for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown.
• Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.

DEEP-FRIED MINI CALZONES (PANZAROTTI) RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a liquid measuring cup, sprinkle the yeast over the warm water. Set aside for 5 minutes to bloom.
• In a bowl, add 3 cups (375 g) of the flour, Parmesan, baking powder, salt, and sugar, and stir to combine.
• Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and stir to combine. Pour the yeast water over the flour mixture and stir until the dough forms into a ball.
• Use remaining flour for dusting the surface. Scrape the dough out of the bowl onto your floured surface. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until the dough is tight and form the dough into a ball.
• Pour 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl. Place the dough in the bowl.
• Cover, let rise for 1 hour in a warm area, or until the dough has doubled in size.
• Flour the surface. Flip bowl over surface and let the dough fall out of the bowl. Cut the dough into 2-inch (5-cm) pieces. Roll into balls.
• Begin forming the dough into a circle about ½-inch (1-cm) thick and 5 inches (12-cm) wide, making sure the middle of the circle is not too thin. Repeat with the other balls of dough.
• Spoon 1 tablespoon of tomato sauce on to the center of the dough.
• Sprinkle 2 tablespoons mozzarella, then 1 tablespoon basil. Season with salt.
• Fold the dough over the fillings and seal. Pinch the edge of the dough together and fold back. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
• Heat 2 inches (5 cm) of oil until the temperature reaches 365˚F (185˚C).
• Fry the calzones 2 at a time for about 3 minutes on each side. Remove from oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Place a bowl filled with the rest of the tomato sauce on the plate.
• Sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!
