Assemble the bread
- Tip the dough onto a floured workbench and cut in half.
- Roll the first half of the dough out as thin as pizza dough. Keep the other half of the dough to make another bread.
- Spread half of the cheese mixture on. Leave some space around the edge.
- Now take the edge of the dough, lift it up bit by bit, and pull it to the center. The dough is very elastic and easy to stretch.
- Pinch the dough together so the cheese is fully enclosed. It should look like a big dumpling.
- With the rolling pin flatten the stuffed cheese dough carefully until it is even and round.
- Heat up a greased large frying pan and place the bread in there. Fry until golden brown on medium heat.
- Flip the bread over with a spatula and fry on the other side. While the bread cooks, brush on our topping. The cooking time is around 5 minutes on each side.
- Serve while still hot and dip the bread into our topping mix. Soooo delicious!
