Make the dough: In a medium bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, flour, and salt. Mix with a rubber spatula until well-combined and the dough comes together into a ball.

Lightly flour a clean surface, then turn the dough out and knead for 1-2 minutes to smooth and encourage gluten development. Shape the dough into a ball.

Drizzle the olive oil in a clean large bowl. Add the dough ball and turn to coat in the oil. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

While the dough is rising, make the filling: Add the sausage to a medium nonstick pan over medium heat and cook until no longer pink, 5-6 minutes. Add the onion, salt, and pepper and continue to cook until the sausage is browned, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat and let cool.

After the dough has risen, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 4 portions, then roll each into and round about ¼-inch (½ cm) thick.

Spread ¼ of the sauce over one half of each dough round, leaving a ½-inch (1 cm) border along the edge. Top each one with 2 slices of ham, 5 pepperoni, ¼ of the sausage and onion mixture, and ¼ cup (25 G) of mozzarella cheese.

Lightly beat the egg with a pinch of salt. Brush the egg wash on the border of the dough, fold the other half over, and press the edges together. Starting from one corner, fold the dough over itself in a twist. Tuck the other corner underneath. Transfer the calzones to the prepared baking sheet. Brush lightly with egg wash and score the tops with a knife to allow steam to escape.

Bake for 15-17 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes.

Serve the calzones with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.

Cooking for a crowd and need the perfect appetizer? Try making these shrimp and veggie-stuffed lumpia, or, as they’re referred to in the Philippines, lumpia togue-- togue meaning bean sprout. Your guests will love the crisp wrappers and flavor-packed filling, and you will love how quickly a batch can be whipped up. You can also make these ahead of time, freeze, and fry a few days later!

Vegetable And Shrimp Lumpia Recipe by Tasty

garlic,

fresno chiles, minced

sugar

rice vinegar

salt

cornstarch

carrots,

½ lb green beans,

vegetable oil

yellow onion, diced

ginger

lb shrimp, peeled, deveined and finely chopped

fish sauce

pepper

bean sprout

lumpia wrappers

egg wash,

canola oil, for frying

Make the sweet chili sauce: In a small pot over medium heat, mix together ½ cup (120 ml) of water, the garlic, Fresno chilies, sugar, rice vinegar, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes.

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and remaining tablespoon of water.

Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the sauce until fully incorporated. Continue to simmer for 1 minute, or until the mixture has thickened. Remove from the heat and let cool.

Make the lumpia: Julienne the carrots. Cut the green beans on the diagonal.

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes or until slightly tender.

Add the garlic and ginger, and continue cooking for 2 minutes more, until fragrant.

Add the carrots and green beans, and toss to combine. Add the shrimp, fish sauce, salt, pepper, and rice vinegar, and cook for 2 minutes or until shrimp is pink.

Add the bean sprouts, toss to incorporate, and remove the pan from the heat.

Lay out a lumpia wrapper in a diamond shape and spoon 2 tablespoons of filling onto the bottom of the wrapper, leaving about 1½ inches (4 cm) of space from the bottom point.

Fold the bottom point over the filling, then fold in the edges to create an envelope shape. Roll the wrapper toward the top point. Brush the top point with egg wash and finish the roll to seal the end. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

In a large, deep skillet, heat 1 inch (2.5 cm) of canola oil to 300°F (150°C).

Carefully add 4-5 lumpia at a time to the hot oil. Fry on each side for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Note: If the lumpia are cooking too quickly or burning, reduce the heat. Remove the lumpia from the oil and drain on a wire rack or paper towels.

Garnish with cilantro and serve with the sweet chili sauce.

Milk

Add your whole egg, yolk, or white to a small bowl

Now, add your milk, or alternatively water or cream to the egg

Whisk the mixture vigorously until the egg and liquid are well combined and very smooth

Apply the egg wash on your pastry with the help of a silicone pastry brush

Do be sure to cover the entire pastry with the egg mixture. However, be careful not to overdo it and add too thick of a layer, which can result in uneven shine and browning, even burning in some cases
