Ingredients

1 ballpizza dough
1/2 cuptomato pizza sauce
200gfresh mozzarella, torn
to tastebasil and olive oil

Instructions

1

Stretch the dough into a round by hand on a floured surface, working from the centre outward rather than rolling it.

2

This keeps the air bubbles that give the crust its texture.

3

Spread the sauce thinly and scatter torn mozzarella evenly, leaving the classic thin border of dough bare around the edge.

4

Bake at the hottest possible 250C for 10-12 minutes until the crust blisters and turns properly golden, then finish with fresh basil the moment it comes out.
