Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Preheat the oven

    Turn the oven to 230 °C (convection if you can) and put the baking sheet lined with parchment paper inside so it heats up.

  2. Slice the mushrooms

    Wipe the mushrooms with a damp towel or paper towel, then cut them into thin slices.

  3. Sauté the mushrooms

    Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in the skillet over high heat and sauté the mushrooms for 4 to 5 min, until their liquid cooks off. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

    Tip · Don't cover the skillet and only salt at the end, otherwise the mushrooms release too much water and make the crust soggy.

  4. Roll out the dough

    Unroll the 2 pizza crusts on the counter. Brush each one with half the remaining olive oil (1/2 tbsp per crust).

  5. Spread the tomato sauce

    Split the 40 g of tomato sauce into two equal parts, one per crust, and spread it with the spoon, leaving a 1 cm border. Sprinkle oregano over each pizza, 1 tsp per pizza.

  6. Top the pizzas

    Tear the mozzarella into small pieces and split it into two equal parts: half on each pizza. Add the sautéed mushrooms, divided evenly between the two.

  7. Bake the pizzas

    Slide the pizzas onto the hot baking sheet, parchment paper and all, and bake at 230 °C. Cook for 10 to 12 min, until the edges are golden and the mozzarella is melted.

    Tip · If your oven only has one rack, bake the pizzas one after the other, or on two baking sheets in the middle, swapping them halfway through so they cook evenly.

  8. Add the arugula

    Take the pizzas out of the oven, scatter the 10 g of arugula on top and add pepper. Slice and serve right away.
