Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Preheat the oven

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

    Tip · If your oven has a convection setting, use it for more even baking.

  2. Roll out the dough

    Take the dough out of the fridge and spread it right onto a baking sheet lightly greased with a little olive oil. Use the rolling pin if needed for an even round.

  3. Spread the tomato sauce

    Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the whole dough, leaving a 1 cm border for the crust.

  4. Add the ham

    Cut the ham into small pieces and scatter them over the sauce.

  5. Scatter the mozzarella

    Drain the mozzarella, tear it by hand and scatter it over the ham. Use half of the cheese for this step.

  6. Bake the pizza

    Bake the pizza on the middle rack for 12 to 15 min, until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.

    Tip · Keep a close eye on the pizza toward the end so the cheese doesn't burn.

  7. Make the salad

    Wash the green salad, spin it dry and tear it into pieces in a bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.

  8. Add the rest of the cheese

    Take the pizza out of the oven, scatter the rest of the mozzarella on top and put it back under the broiler for 2 min to brown lightly.

  9. Serve

    Cut the pizza into slices and serve it with the salad on the side.

And there you go, it's readyCheck off every step to celebrate.
