Preparation Steps
1
In a large bowl, sift the all-purpose flour. Add the dry yeast, salt, and sugar, then mix to combine.
2
Pour in the lukewarm water and olive oil, then start kneading. Work until a smooth, elastic dough forms. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.
3
Divide the risen dough into two equal parts. On a floured surface, roll each part into a circle.
4
Spread cream cheese over half of one circle, then layer with smoked salmon, capers, and grated mozzarella.
5
Sprinkle with oregano, basil, and a pinch of black pepper, then drizzle with a little lemon juice.
6
Fold the other half of the dough over the filling, then press the edges together to seal, ensuring the filling doesn't escape.
7
Brush the top with beaten egg, and use a fork to prick a few holes to allow steam to escape during baking.
8
Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
