Equipment

  • 10x15 inch rectangular tray

Ingredients

  • 1 batch homemade pizza dough (you need half for 1 pizza)
  • ¼ cup tomato passata (tomato puree US) 100g)
  • 1-2 tablespoons Nduja
  • 1 ball burrata cheese (150g/5.2oz)
  • 4.4 oz ball fresh mozzarella (125g) patted dry on kitchen paper
  • 1-2 tablespoons Parmigiano Reggiano freshly grated (coarsely grated is best)
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 small handful fresh basil
  • Flour or semolina for dusting the pizza tray

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 535F (280C) or the highest setting it will go.
  • Mix the passata, dried oregano and olive oil together, set aside. Lightly sprinkle your pizza tray with semolina or flour.
  • Roll out half of the dough to fit the tray you are using and place it in the tray.
  • Spread the passata over the pizza then top with mozzarella and Nduja. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and crust is lightly golden.
  • Once baked, add dollops of burrata cheese and sprinkle some parmesan over each piece of burrata. Scatter over some fresh basil and serve.

Notes

  • Nutritional information is for half of the pizza.
  • Prep time does not include making the dough from scratch.
  • Pizza dough - the pizza dough can be made a day in advance.
  • Using semola or semolina - this is great for sprinkling on the pizza trays to stop them from sticking, alternatively, you can use a light sprinkling of flour.
  • Pizza tray size - we chose to make a large rectangular pizza in a tray sized 10x15 inch. You can opt to use one bigger, smaller, round pizza tray or even a pizza stone for your oven. Use more or less dough and toppings as needed to fit what you are using.
