Ingredients

  • 1 Puff pastry sheet
  • 250 g Passata
  • 1 tsp Oregano
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp Tomato puree
  • 125 g Mozzarella
  • Chosen toppings (I used cherry tomatoes)
  • 1 tbsp Pesto (Optional)
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Put passata, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper, and tomato puree in a bowl and mix.
  • Lay the puff pastry sheet out on a lined baking tray and spoon over the tomato mix evenly, leaving a border around the edges clear.
  • Put cheese and toppings on. Drizzle over pesto and some basil.
  • Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until crispy and golden. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

To avoid sogginess:
  • Make sure you don’t drown the pastry in sauce or it might not crisp up enough
  • Make sure the oven is hot before you put your pizza in. This will make sure the pastry rises and cooks through
  • Cook the pizzas near the top of the oven
  • Use a good quality heavyweight baking sheet as they transfer heat more effectively I find
