Method

  1. 1
    • wheat flour 400 g
    • dry yeast 1 tsp
    • salt 1 tsp
    • olive oil 2 tbsp
    • water 2½ dl

    Make the dough — Mix the flour, yeast and salt with the oil and the listed amount of lukewarm water. Knead to a smooth dough and rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

  2. 2
    • spinach 300 g
    • ricotta 250 g
    • mozzarella 130 g
    • Parmesan 40 g
    • ground nutmeg 1 pinch
    • black pepper to taste

    Make the filling — Wilt the spinach in a hot pan, drain well and chop. Mix with the ricotta, half the mozzarella, the Parmesan, nutmeg and plenty of black pepper.

  3. 3
    • mozzarella 130 g

    Shape the calzones — Divide the dough into 4 and roll each into a round. Spoon the filling onto one half, top with the rest of the mozzarella, fold over and crimp the edges.

  4. 4
    • olive oil 2 tbsp

    Bake until golden — Brush with oil and bake at 220°C/430°F for 18-20 minutes until puffed and golden. Rest 5 minutes before serving.
