Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 5 oz scamorza cheese
  • 3.5 oz ricotta cheese
  • 3.5 oz salami
  • 3.5 tbsp water
  • 1.75 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Half a packet instant yeast for savory preparations

Steps

  • Ricotta focaccia in a skillet is very simple and quick to prepare. First, put ricotta, flour, extra virgin olive oil, room temperature water, salt, yeast in a bowl and knead, forming a soft and homogeneous dough. Then work it on a work surface and divide it into two equal parts.

  • Roll out the two pieces to form two circles about a quarter inch thick. Take one disc and place it inside a non-stick skillet (you don’t need to grease or add anything else, just ensure it’s non-stick), fill it with a few slices of salami, scamorza, more salami, and cover the filling with the second dough disc.

  • Seal the edges well and fold them inwards, cover the skillet with a lid and cook the ricotta focaccia in a skillet for 10 minutes over very low heat, flip it and continue cooking for another 7-8 minutes.

Notes:

Ricotta focaccia in a skillet can be stored at room temperature for a few hours or in the fridge for a couple of days. You can also bake it in a preheated oven at 392°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes. You can fill it with any filling you prefer.
