- 3 1/2 cups all -purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup warm water
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 pounds broccoli rabe, washed and trimmed of any tough stems
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced very thin
- 1/8 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes
- Coarse salt to taste
- To make the dough, sift the flour, salt, and baking powder together.
- Make a well in the center, add the water and oil to it and blend until the dough is smooth.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 1 minute.
- Cover and allow it to sit for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
- Cut the broccoli rabe into 2-inch pieces and blanch in a large pot of boiling salted water for 4 minutes or until tender.
- Drain well in a colander.
- Place the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high and saute the garlic until golden.
- Add the broccoli rabe, red pepper flakes, and salt to taste.
- Saute for another 4 to 5 minutes.
- Remove all ingredients from the pan and allow to come to room temperature.
- Divide the dough into eight equal portions, then roll them out on a lightly floured surface into 8-inch rounds.
- Warm a skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates immediately upon hitting the surface.
- Place the pieces of dough in the skillet, dry, cooking one side until they become firm and golden, which should take less than a minute.
- Flip them over, cook the other side, then transfer to a plate or cutting board or just fill it in the pan, fold it over and then remove to a plate to serve hot.
- While the piadine are still hot, place the broccoli mixture in the center of them, fold them over to form half-moon shapes.
