Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon yeast, active dry
  • 1 1/2 cups water warm
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon cumin ground
  • 1 tablespoon coriander ground
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  • 2 1/2 cups flour, all-purpose
  • 2 cups vegetables grilled
  • 4 ounces cheddar cheese, very old, sharp

Method

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water.
  • Slowly stir in whole wheat flour, cumin, and coriander.
  • Mix well, cover, and set aside to rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes.
  • Stir in salt, oil, and 2 cups of unbleached white flour.
  • Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes, adding more flour as necessary to keep from sticking.
  • Shape into a ball, place in a large, lightly sprayed bowl, and turn oiled side up.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and set aside to rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Divide dough into six pieces and roll into smooth balls.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll balls into 7-inch circles (about 1/4 inch thick).
  • Place equal amounts of vegetables and cheese in center of each circle.
  • Pull edges up to center, pinch closed and press to flatten.
  • Cover with a cloth, and let rise for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat grill to medium-hot.
  • Gently place calzones on grill, pinched side down, and cook about 5 minutes on each side, until well marked and browned.
