| Preparation: | Dough:
Mix yeast, sugar, milk, and 1 Tbsp flour with warm water in small bowl. Let stand for 15 minutes until flothy. Add salt and olive oil. Slowly mix in remaining flour. Knead. Let rise until double in bulk. (1-1.5 hours) Preheat to 400 F. Cut dough in half and roll a 12" circle. Brush olive oil around outside edge. Spread the stuffing on the dough to within 1/2" of edge. Roll out the other dough circle and cover "stuffed" pizza. Seal the two edges by crimping. Then fold the outer edge over the top and crimp again. Brush the top with water. Bake for 30 minutes. Note that the temperature is lower than for pizza and the sfinciuni bakes longer. Use a baking stone if you have one. Greek Stuffing: Heat olive oil in pan over medium heat. Add 1 chopped garlic clove, onions, and leek. Cook slowly to bring out the sugars. They should be soft and translucent. Set aside. Heat 1-2 teaspoons olive oil in a pan over high heat. Add the washed and still wet greens. As they begin to cook, add 1 chopped garlic clove. Quickly wilt the greens and place them in a colander to drain. When the greens are cool, squeeze out the excess water. Then chopped the greens. Build the topping/stuffing in this order: onion/leeks, greens, lemon zest, olives, dill, feta, mozzarella, and parmesan. |
