A gastronomic treasure jealously guarded by the skilful hands of Menfi’s grandmothers: sciavata. This delicacy, which has its roots in the alleys of the city, is a living story handed down from generation to generation.
Beware of calling it schiacciata or focaccia! Experienced cooks might take offence. In fact, sciavata is a unique creation that captures the authentic essence of the local tradition in every bite. And to complete the experience, we recommend a very special wine.
In a large bowl, mix the flour with the sourdough starter, warm water and salt until smooth.
Cover with a clean tea towel and leave to rise for 4 hours.
At the end of the rising time, roll out the dough and knead it with a little extra virgin olive oil, adding an emulsion of baking powder and lemon juice.
Knead the dough until all the ingredients are well incorporated, then leave to rest for at least 2 hours.
In a large frying pan, fry the peeled and thinly sliced potatoes in plenty of hot oil.
Add the onion cut into julienne strips and brown. After add the tomato and season with salt and pepper.
When cooked, add the crumbled sausage and continue cooking until all the ingredients are well mixed and cooked.
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Pour half of the risen pastry into the greased tin and spread the filling evenly, then cover with the other half of the pastry.
Bake for about 30 minutes. Serve the sciavata warm and cut into slices.
