Depending on the size you make them, this is enough for three large pide or several individual ones.
INGREDIENTS
Dough
1½ cups plain flour
¼ teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon instant dried yeast
175ml tepid water
Filling
1 large egg, size 7, lightly whisked
2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
100 grams aged cheddar, grated
150 grams mozzarella, grated
sea salt and ground pepper
1 green capsicum, thinly sliced
3 tomatoes, sliced
Topping
1 large egg yolk, size 7
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
METHOD
Dough: Combine the flour, salt and yeast in a large bowl. Pour in the water and use a fork to combine and make a sticky dough.
Turn out on a floured bench and, with floured hands, knead gently for a couple of minutes, adding a little more flour if needed, until it becomes smooth and pulls away from the bench easily.
Place in a lightly greased bowl and cover with a tea towel. Leave to rise until the dough doubles in size (about 1 hour).
Preheat the oven to 200°C fan bake.
Line a large flat baking tray with baking paper.
Divide the dough into three equal pieces. Roll out each one on a lightly floured bench to an oblong approximately 30cm x 15cm. Place on the baking tray.
Fold over the edges and pinch together to make a border. Press each end into a point and twist to close tightly.
Filling: Stir the egg, oregano and both cheeses together in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Divide the filling among the pide then top with the sliced tomatoes and
green capsicum.
Topping: Brush the borders with egg yolk and sprinkle over the sesame seeds.
Bake for about 20 minutes, or until puffed and golden. Makes 3 pides
