Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Preheat the oven

    Turn the oven to 220°C (gas mark 7) so it's nice and hot when the pizza goes in.

  2. Roll out the dough

    Take the dough out of its packaging and spread it right on the baking sheet, lightly greased with a little olive oil.

    Tip · To keep the dough from sticking, lightly oil your fingers before spreading it.
  3. Spread the tomato sauce

    With a wooden spoon, spread the tomato sauce over the whole crust, leaving a 1 cm border with no sauce.

  4. Add the ham

    Cut the ham into small pieces and spread them evenly over the tomato sauce.

  5. Add the mozzarella

    Drain the mozzarella, slice it thin and lay the slices over the ham. Sprinkle with half the salt and pepper.

  6. Bake the pizza

    Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 min, until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.

    Tip · Want a crispier crust? Slide the pizza under the broiler for 2 min after the regular baking time.
  7. Make the salad

    While the pizza bakes, wash the lettuce, spin it dry and tear it into pieces in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with the rest of the salt and pepper.

  8. Serve hot

    Take the pizza out of the oven and let it rest 2 min before slicing. Serve it with the green salad on the side.
