The devotion to bolognese sauce can sometimes take on almost blasphemous overtones. Today we are going to get into a good gardenbut not in a little garden where you say you barely get your feet dirty.
No, today we enter up to the hock in a good garden with a delicious recipe which may offend some purists of Italian cuisine, but which allows us to use up some leftover bolognese sauce in just half an hour.
We don't know if it's a sandwich, a pizza or both at the same time. We could almost say that it is a kind of Schrodinger's Bolognese sauce. What we do assure you is that this recipe has the best of both worlds, allowing us to take advantage of the classic refrigerated pizza crusts but without turning on the oven.
Surely you will think that we are heretics, but this tasty heresy is solve with a frying pan and taking advantage of that container of bolognese sauce that you have in the freezer waiting for a pasta that never arrives.
You can also make a bolognese from scratch or even, although we are not big fans of it, that tune those supermarket bolognese, giving them a little love. The truth is that this pizza-sandwich recipe (you can call it sandwich sandwich if you want) it is ideal for having a dinner or an aperitif, especially if there are little ones at home and you don't feel like turning on the oven. Or even making a pizza, rescuing that dough that you have in the fridge also waiting for who knows what.
The only thing you have to do is spread a rectangular pizza base and cut it into two halves. We cover one of them with the bolognese and the other we put on top, perpendicularly, as if it were a cross and on it we also put more bolognese sauce.
After we fold the ends of that cross, leaving the appearance of a closed sandwich, as if it were a pizza calzone or, in a way, an empanadilla. In addition, we recommend that you also add a little grated mozzarella between layers.
Then you will only have to put this dough on a hot pan over low heat for about eight or ten minutes. Just enough for the dough to cook and for the inside to have warmed up, also melting the cheese.
