Preparation Steps
- 1
Make the Flour Shell
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water and 1 tablespoon of olive oil, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough for 5 minutes until smooth. Divide into 4 equal portions, roll each out into a thin circle, and cook on a hot skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Set aside.

Prepare the Chili Spiced Ground Sirloin
