Dough

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Make Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the activated yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Knead Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Let Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and allow it to rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Filling Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion, garlic, and bell pepper. Sauté until the onions are translucent.

  2. 6

    Add Beef and Tomato

    Add the shredded carne seca and diced tomato to the skillet. Season with black pepper and salt. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until heated through.

  3. 7

    Combine with Cheese

    Remove from heat and stir in the grated cheddar and mozzarella cheese until melted and well combined.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 8

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

  2. 9

    Shape the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a large circle or rectangle to fit your baking dish.

  3. 10

    Fill the Dough

    Transfer the rolled dough to a greased baking dish. Spread the carne seca filling evenly over the dough.

  4. 11

    Cover and Bake

    Fold the edges of the dough over the filling to create a crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

  5. 12

    Serve

    Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes, slice, and serve warm.
