You will need:
For the dough:
- 250 grams of flour + extra flour for rolling out the dough
- 125 grams of milk
- 50 grams of clarified butter
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- Salt.
Pour flour into a bowl, add 1 teaspoon of baking soda and half a teaspoon of salt. Create a well in the center of the flour. Add softened lard and half of the milk. Begin stirring with a spoon, gradually adding the remaining milk.
Knead the dough until it becomes smooth and homogeneous. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 10 minutes.
While the dough is resting, prepare the filling of your choice. I used scamorza cheese, prosciutto cotto (ham), and boiled vegetables.
Divide the dough into 6 parts, form balls, cover them, and let them rest for another 10 minutes. Roll out the dough balls into thin circles, place filling on one side. Fold the dough semicircles and press the edges well with a fork.
Fry 2 calzones at a time on a well-heated grill, reducing the heat to a minimum, for 3 minutes on each side. Serve hot.
