Ingredients
For 2 portions
- 1 12 inch pizza dough
- 6 Tbsp pizza sauce
- 1 ball mozzarella cheese
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp basil
Method
- Preheat the oven to its highest setting (230–250 °C) with a baking tray or pizza stone inside if you have one.
- Stretch or roll the pizza dough into a thin round on a piece of baking paper or a floured surface.
- Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the base, leaving a small border. Tear the mozzarella into pieces and scatter over the sauce. Drizzle with the olive oil.
- Slide the pizza onto the hot tray or stone and bake for 8–12 minutes until the crust is puffed and golden and the cheese is bubbling and lightly coloured.
- Scatter with torn fresh basil leaves as soon as it comes out of the oven. Slice and serve immediately.
