Calzone, its a kind of pizza looks exactly like a pocket and its an Italian turnover made usually with pizza dough and stuffed with cheese,ham or vegetables..The dough will be folded over and sealed on one edge and baked in oven..I do this calzone often sometimes with store bought marinara sauce and cheese since my son fond always for this fabulous calzone..This time i prepared the famous Italian calzone again with cheese, canned artichoke hearts and mushrooms,as i rarely cook artichoke hearts..I prepared simply a peppered mushroom and artichoke masala and stuffed a store bought pizza dough for making this Indian version calzone..Needless to say my little one enjoyed having this calzone for his snacks and we too enjoyed it with a cup of coffee..
