Stuffed fugazzeta is one of the jewels of Argentine cuisine, a variation of pizza that wins over with its fluffy dough, juicy interior, and crispy exterior. Unlike traditional pizza, here the filling (ham and mozzarella) goes inside, and the onion, cut into strips and lightly blanched, crowns the surface with a touch of oregano. This easy recipe is perfect for those looking to impress at a family meal or with friends.
The process starts with a simple dough of bread flour, warm water, fresh yeast, salt, and olive oil, which is kneaded and left to rise briefly. Then it is divided into two parts, one larger than the other: the base is stretched in the pizza pan, filled with Iberian ham in cubes and shredded mozzarella, and covered with the second layer of dough. Baking at a high temperature (270°C) guarantees a golden and appetizing result.
If you are looking for a different pizza recipe, with an Argentine touch and lots of flavor, this stuffed fugazzeta is ideal. You can adapt the filling to your taste, adding other ingredients like olives or hard-boiled egg.

Put the water in the glass and program 1 minute at 37° C with speed 1. Add the yeast, and program, again, 1 minute at 37° C with speed 1. Add the flour, salt and oil, and program 5 minutes at herringbone speed, without temperature. Transfer the dough to a bowl, make a ball with it and let it rise for 20 minutes.
While we prepare the onion. Cut it into a feather and rinse it in boiling water. Just before using it, we drain.
Cut ham into small cubes.
After time, we divided the ball into two parts, one part being larger than the other.
We stretch the larger part on the pizza maker (pre-oiled) with our fingers. Place the ham and mozzarella on top. And we preheat the oven to 270°C, with heat up and down.
Roll out the other part of the dough and place it on top of the filling. We close the edges tightly.
Put the drained onion and generously sprinkle the oregano. Let it rest for 10 minutes. We put it in the preheated oven and in 15 minutes it will be ready.
