    | 1. In a mixer, or in a food processor, add the flour and rock salt. Begin mixing and add the oil, then slowly add the water until the dough just comes together. | 2. Knead the dough with your hands for 10 minutes; it will be quite tough. | 3. Wrap the dough in cling film and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. | 4. Sweat onion and garlic in a pan with a little olive oil. | 5. Add the crushed tomatoes and simmer for 30 minutes. | 6. Slice the eggplant into .5 in rounds and slice zucchini lengthwise into 1/4 inch strips. | 7. Grill vegetables on a high heat on a barbecue, griddle or in a frying pan. | 8. Add sugar and vinegar to the tomato sauce and simmer until thick. | 9. Add the anchovies. | 10. Take ½ of the dough and roll out to a thickness of approximately 0.2mm. | 11. The dough will spring back so just keep working it until you get a large circle (approximately 15 inches). | 12. Place on greaseproof paper onto a baking tray. | 13. Layer the filling in the center of the dough, leaving approximately 2 inches around the edge for sealing. | 14. Layer in the order of eggplant, zucchini, prosciutto, tomato sauce, basil leaves, and parmesan. | 15. Repeat, and finish with a layer of eggplant. | 16. Roll the remaining dough out to a similar size and lay over the filling. | 17. Crimp and fold the edges to seal the torta (you can trim the edges a little if you have too much dough), and prick the top a few times with the point of a sharp knife. | 18. Brush the torta with egg wash. | 19. Bake at 340ºF for 30-40 minutes. | 20. Cut into wedges and serve with a green salad. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
