Step cooking

Cooking dough

2. Add quick dry yeast (1/2 teaspoon) to the flour and mix well to make the yeast evenly distributed. Pour sugar (a teaspoon) and salt (1/2 part of a teaspoon) here.
   
3. Pour olive oil (1-2 tablespoons) into the dry ingredients and start kneading the dough with your hands.
   
4. While kneading, add warm water (150 ml) gradually and continue the kneading process continuously.
   
5. It is necessary to ensure that the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
   
6. Smear a clean, dry bowl with olive oil (1/2 teaspoon) and put the kneaded dough into it. Cover the bowl with cling film or a towel and place in a warm place so that the dough rises.

2. Send thinly sliced ​​bacon pieces (3-4 pieces) to a well-heated dry pan and fry them on both sides until crisp.
   
3. Remove the well-fried bacon from the pan, and in the melted fat, put the onion chopped into cubes and fry with constant stirring.
   
4. Add ground beef (200 grams) to the onion and continue to fry it until golden brown, stirring constantly.
   
5. Drain the excess fat formed during frying the minced meat, and transfer the prepared minced meat from the pan to the plate.
   
6. Cut the ham into large cubes (70-100 grams), and leave the sausage in whole circles (8-10 pieces).

2. Put the stewpan on the fire, pour olive oil (1-2 tablespoons) into it and put the peeled garlic clove in it so that it gives its flavor to the oil.
   
3. In a well-heated oil, add tomato paste (3-4 tablespoons) and fry it slightly with continuous stirring.
   
4. When the pasta is slightly fried, add water (100 ml) a little. You should get a sauce that, in consistency, resembles ketchup. Adjust the density yourself, adding water or tomato paste if necessary.
