Ingredients

For the dough:

500 g Strong white flour
7 g Fast action yeast sachet
2 tsp Salt
4 tbsp Olive oil
300 ml Tepid water
Alternatively, you can replace all of these items with 2x packs of pizza dough mix See notes

For the filling:

1/2 Tomato puree tube
1 tsp Dried oregano
A handful each of fillings Your choice
200 g Cheddar cheese

To decorate:

3 tbsp Milk To brush over

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200℃ fan/220℃/Gas Mark 7.
Mix up your dough ingredients (or packet according to the instructions). Knead and then cover and leave to rise in a warm place for 45 minutes.
Roll out to form a rectangle about 20cm x 30cm.
Spread the tomato puree over the top, sprinkle on the oregano, then the other fillings, then about half of the cheese.
Roll up the pizza tightly, rolling the longest edge to make a Swiss roll-style shape. (If the roll isn't sticking shut, you can brush it with a little water here and there.)
Using a sharp knife, cut the roll up into about 10 whirls, about 2cm thickness each.
Lay the rolls onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper, cover them with a tea towel and allow them to rise for a further 15 minutes.
Brush the rolls with the milk and sprinkle over the remaining cheese.
Bake for 10-20 minutes (depending on the size of your rolls) until golden and the cheese is crispy.
Enjoy hot or cold.

Notes

Ready-made pizza dough: You can replace the homemade dough ingredients with x2 packs of pizza dough mix from the supermarket. Follow the packet instructions

Pizza toppings/fillings: All of the usual pizza topping favourites work well, but don’t over-stuff them as they become a bit tricky to roll

Serving suggestions: If you’re in a hurry, these are great on their own or with a quick side salad. But if you’re cooking these as part of a bigger meal, you could serve up Homemade Chips and Garlic Bread too

To freeze: These would be best stored in the freezer BEFORE you bake them for another day, so they’re great for making ahead of time

Nutritional value: This does not include your choice of fillings
