Name: Calzone Di Ragusa - Savory Roll Ragusa-Style
Ingredients: 2 lb Leavened Dough; 2 lb Lamb; boned, chopped; 3 sm Onions; chopped; 1 tb Tomato concentrate; 1/2 c Red Wine; 1 Egg Yolk; Salt; Pepper; Olive oil

I fear that much of our prayer is lost because we do not sufficiently throw our hearts into it. It is possible for us to attend the meeting and all the while be thinking of the home, the infant in the cradle, or the shop, the field, the farm, the factory, the counting-house, the and I know not what beside. Is it any wonder then that prayer halts? The brother who prays may be burning with earnest desire, but his prayer lags because we are not backing it with silent Devour and passionate longing for God’s blessing. Oh! Brethren and sisters, we have often spoiled our prayer meetings thus.

C.H. Spurgeon

INGREDIENTS

2	lb	Leavened Dough
2	lb	Lamb; boned, chopped
3	sm	Onions; chopped
1	tb	Tomato concentrate
1/2	c	Red Wine
1		Egg Yolk
		Salt
		Pepper
		Olive oil

INSTRUCTIONS

First brown the chopped onion in oil in a pan, then add the pieces of lamb.
Pour on the wine and let it evaporate. Add the tomato concentrate dissolved
in hot water, season with salt and pepper and leave to cook for about 20
minutes. Oil a baking tin or dish and line with half of the leavened dough.
Pour the stew over and cover with the other half of the dough, pressing the
edges together with your water-moistened fingers. Prick the pie all over
with a fork and brush with the beaten egg yolk. Bake in a hot oven for
20-30 minutes.
Variation: the dish is prepared on Christmas Eve in Caltanisetta, but there
the dough is stuffed with fillets of fried salt cod in a tomato and onion
sauce. In Messina, on the other hand, the dish is still made on Christmas
Eve, but the filling is made of fried pork sausage, slices of fresh
pecorino cheese, spring onions and black olives.
