Instructions

Prevent your screen from going dark as you follow along.

Step 1

Prepare your pizza dough.

Step 2

Make the tomato sauce by placing the whole tomatoes from the tin into a bowl (leaving behind the extra juice) and use a stick blender to pulse the tomatoes until you have a chunky sauce consistency. Stir in the salt then add a little of the leftover tomato juice from the tin if you would like your sauce a little looser.

Step 3

Make the basil sauce but removing the leaves from the bunch of basil and place in a bowl or a mortar. Add the garlic and use a stick blender or pestle to process the basil into a paste, adding a splash of water if needed. Add in the lemon juice, a pinch of salt and a good glug of extra virgin olive oil and mix again until you have a vibrant green sauce.

Step 4

Prepare the white sauce by placing the cream and Parmigiano-Reggiano into a bowl and whisk for a minute or so until it just reaches soft peak consistency.

Step 5

Stretch the dough out and top with the grated provolone and Parmigiano-Reggiano then spoon over a few spoonfuls of the tomato sauce, hiding any ‘bald’ spots on your dough.

Step 6

With the Gozney at 400C / 750F and a medium flame add the pizza to the oven for a few minutes, turning often, until the dough is cooked through and the cheese melted.

Step 7

Add the basil sauce and cream sauce to the top and serve. Any leftover tomato sauce and basil sauce will keep in the fridge for 5-7 days.
