- Heat an oven-proof frying pan on the hob medium heat.
- Stretch or roll out the dough until it’s around the same size as your large frying pan. Place the base on and warm the base for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Spread the tomato sauce all over the pizza base.
- Now place on the mozzarella and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200oC for 8 mins until nicely golden and crispy. Serve sliced on a board (with baby basil leaves over top to garnish) Enjoy!
