Pizza Calzone

If you haven’t tried calzone pizza yet, be sure to do so, especially since it is very simple to prepare it. This indoor snack cake was once invented in southern Italy and is still challenged by Sicilians, Apulians and Neapolitans to this day. But be that as it may, the dish has a number of advantages over regular pizza. Firstly, the filling of the calzone is more juicy, as it is "hidden" between the layers of the dough. Secondly, such pizza stays hot longer. Finally, thirdly, the calzone is simply more convenient to take with you, to work or for a walk, and it is easier to eat. Agree, it sounds convincing! We suggest making pizza calzone with meat and mozzarella. Delicious, satisfying, very aromatic!
Cut the mozzarella for pizza filling into small slices or slices. Wash the basil and pat dry with a paper towel. Tear off the leaves, tear the large ones.
