1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Mix a tablespoon of yeast in 1 ¼ cup of warm water and let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
3. Coat a baking container with olive oil.

MAKING:
4. In a bowl, add 3 cups of flour, 1 ¼ cup of water mixed with yeast and a dash of olive oil and knead. Add more water if it gets too dry.
5. Add a dash of olive oil and continue kneading.
6. Cover the dough with a cloth and keep in a warm place for about an hour. The dough will rise to twice its size.

11. In the other, add some tomato sauce, 7 slices of prosciutto, 5-6 cubes of mozzarella cheese, a dash of salt and a dash of olive oil.
12. Put both the baking trays into the oven and cook for 15 minutes until the mozzarella melts completely.
13. Take both trays out of the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.

SERVING:

TIPS: The looser your dough, the fluffier your foccacia will turn out.
