- 16
- Yields:
-
1 large calzone
ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 200 g veggie crumbles, soaked in water and drained if necessary (this varies from brand to brand)
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 teaspoons tomato paste
- 200 g frozen spinach, defrosted and squeezed dry
- 70 g dried apricots, diced
- 1 (200 g) can diced tomatoes
- 1⁄2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
- 1⁄8 teaspoon five-spice powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
- salt and black pepper
- 1 small ball mozzarella cheese, diced
- 1 portion of your favourite pizza dough (store-bough or home-made)
- 4 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated
directions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan. Sautee veggie crumbles for about 5 minutes or until browned and fragrant. Add onion and garlic and sautee for another 2 minutes.
- Stir in tomato paste.
- Then add spinach, apricots and diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then turn off heat.
- Add the spices and stir to combine. Allow to cool a tad, then add the mozzarella cheese.
- Roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle (about the size of your baking sheet). This is easiest if done directly on the baking paper.
- Scoop all of the filling onto one of the short halves of the dough leaving a rim 2 cm/1 inch all around.
- Fold over the other half of the dough using your baking paper to do this. Peel off the paper again and seal the rim using a fork. Prick dough a few times.
- Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and bake in the preheated oven at 200°C/400°F on the lower rack for about 15-20 minutes or until dough is done and the top nicely browned.
