Total time:
1 hour 30 minutes
Serves: 6
Ingredients
- Pizza Base
- 450g plain, unbleached white flour
- 1 level tsp sugar
- 1 level tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1 level tsp salt
- 350ml buttermilk, plus a little extra
- Tomato Fondue
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 900g tomatoes (fresh, or drained, tinned ones)
- salt, freshly ground pepper and sugar
- 1 tbsp chopped thyme, parsley, mint, basil or marjoram
- Toppings
- 150g Cheddar, grated
- 60g chorizo sausage, sliced
- 3 large mushrooms, sliced
Method
- Make the tomato fondue. Heat the oil in a wide pan over a gentle heat. Sweat the onion and garlic until completely soft (10-15 minutes).
- If using fresh tomatoes, core them, then cover with boiling water, leave for a minute, and drain. Peel and slice, and add to the onions. If using tinned, just roughly chop first. Season with salt, pepper and sugar. Add the herbs. Cook for 10-20 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, make the base. Preheat the oven to 230C/gas mark 8. Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl, make a well and pour in the 350ml buttermilk. Mix, adding more buttermilk if necessary. Turn onto a floured board, knead briefly then roll out to fit a swiss roll tin (25.5 x 38cm) or divide into 6 pieces.
- Spread 8 tbsp tomato fondue on the dough. Scatter over the toppings. Bake for 25 minutes. For small pizzas, roll out each piece of dough to a 15cm round. Add the toppings and bake for 8-10 minutes.
