Ingredients
4 cups (500 g) all-purpose flour
½ cup (150 g) Grana Padano
1 cup (250 g) water
1 cup (250 g) canned diced tomatoes
1 tsp (5 g) fresh brewer’s yeast
1 tsp (1 teaspoon) cane sugar
fresh basil
extra virgin olive oil
salt
Preparation
STEP 1
Sift the flour and place in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the crumbled brewer’s yeast, then the brown sugar and some water. Begin stirring with a fork, and gradually add the rest of the water.
STEP 2
When the yeast has dissolved, add the salt and begin kneading the mixture with your hands until the dough is soft and smooth. Make the dough into a ball, cover with cling film and leave to rise for at least 12 hours.
STEP 3
Once the dough has risen, knead again quickly and divide into four balls of the same weight, then leave to rise for another 2 hours.
STEP 4
Roll out one of the balls of dough on a floured worktop, first by hand and then with a rolling pin. Heat up a 20cm (8 inch) pan over a high heat, lay the dough in it and cook for about 5 minutes on each side.
STEP 5
Spread with a quarter of the diced tomatoes, add some of the Grana Padano Riserva shavings, dress with a drizzle of olive oil, season with salt, cover with a lid and continue cooking for a few more minutes.
STEP 6
When completely cooked, add a few basil leaves and serve immediately. Repeat the process with the other three balls of dough.
