A delicious baked bread stuffed with cheese, showcasing the versatility of pizza dough.
Equipment
- Oven
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 1 round pizza dough
- 1 mozzarella ball, cut into pieces
- 5 dried tomatoes, halved lengthways
- 200 g ground meat (beef or pork)
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 clove garlic, chopped up
- 80 ml tomato sauce or tomato puree
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 100 g grated cheddar
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp chopped chives
Instructions
- Roll out the pizza dough on a work surface dusted with flour. Place the mozzarella on top in the shape of brackets on both sides of the pizza dough. Do the same with the dried tomatoes — they should be placed within the mozzarella brackets.
- Carefully roll the pizza dough over the mozzarella and tomatoes, before slightly folding it in on itself. Then press each end together. The entire thing should now look a bit like a boat.
- Mix the ground meat with the onions, garlic, tomato sauce, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Spread the mixture inside the bread and level it out using a spoon.
- Sprinkle the grated cheddar on top of the bread. Break an egg into the middle for the finishing touch.
- Bake the bread at 360°F (180°C) for 25 minutes in a preheated convection oven.
