Making Pepper & Halloumi Pide is simple when you follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, and salt. Gradually add warm water and olive oil, mixing until a dough forms.
2. Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the Oven: While the dough rises, preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F).
4. Prepare the Filling: In a pan over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sauté the chopped onion until translucent. Then add the diced peppers and cook for another 5 minutes. Add paprika and black pepper and stir well. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
5. Roll Out the Dough: After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into two equal portions. Roll each portion into an oval shape on a floured surface.
6. Add the Filling: Spoon the pepper mixture evenly over each rolled-out dough, leaving a border around the edges. Top with the diced halloumi cheese.
7. Fold the Edges: Gently fold the edges of the pide over the filling, pinching to seal.
8. Bake: Place the prepared pide on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown.
9. Garnish: Remove from the oven, and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
