INGREDIENTS:

14 oz bread dough (I used pinsa Stuffer)

flour to taste

4 tablespoons warm water

2 pinches salt

 

2 potatoes

water and coarse salt to taste

7 oz prescinsêua (or stracchino cheese)

5 slices ham

2-3 tablespoons basil sauce (here the recipe)

1 tablespoon pine nuts

extra virgin olive oil to taste

 

 

 

 

 

STEP 1: COOK PASTA

Take the dough out of the fridge half an hour before starting and let it rest on the floured pastryboard (at room temperature it will be easier to roll it out).

Now press it with your fingertips.

Mix water, oil and salt in a glass and then brush the mix thoroughly on the rolled out dough.

Cook pastry in preheated oven at 200 ° C for about 12 minutes (until it turns golden).

Remove from the oven and brush it again with the mix of water, oil and salt.

 

 

STEP 2: BOIL VEGETABLES

Peel and slice potatoes.

Boil them in salted water until soft.

Also clean the beans by cutting off the ends

adn boil them in salted water.

 

 

STEP 3: STUFF FOCACCIA 

Add spoonfuls of prescinsêua (or strachino) to the still hot focaccia

 

you will see that with the heat it will tend to melt :-)! then add ham

basil sauce, boiled potatoes

green beans and pine nuts.

Complete with a drizzle of oil and enjoy focaccetta in company!
