Ingredients
- bolognese ragu 200g
- grated mozzarella 100g
- parmesan finely grated to make 2 tbsp
- butter 25g, melted
- garlic 1 clove, crushed
- basil leaves to serve (optional)
PIZZA DOUGH
- strong white bread flour 250g, plus extra for dusting
- fine sea salt ½ tsp
- fast-action dried yeast 1 tsp
- olive oil 1 tbsp, plus extra for the pan
Method
-
Step 1
Make the dough by putting the flour, yeast, oil and ½ tsp of fine sea salt in a bowl. Add 150ml of warm water and knead briefly until it comes together. Tip onto a lightly floured worksurface and knead for 10 minutes until elastic and smooth. Cover and leave to prove for 1 hour until doubled in size.
-
Step 2
Heat the oven to 240C/fan 220C/gas 9. Lightly oil a large ovenproof frying pan or skillet. Knock back the dough into the bowl, then roll out until it’s a little larger than the size of the frying pan.
-
Step 3
Lift the dough into the pan, and fold over the sides to form a crust. Spoon the ragu into the middle of the pizza, then scatter over both the cheeses. Heat the pan over a medium heat for 5 minutes until the crust starts to look puffy, and the base is lightly golden.
-
Step 4
Mix together the butter and garlic, and brush over the crust. Transfer to the oven and cook for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is molten and bubbling, and the crust springs back when pressed. Scatter over some more parmesan and a few torn basil leaves, if you like, to serve.
