Simple Mills - Marghertia Pizza

Ingredients

1. 1 box Simple Mills pizza dough mix
2. 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3. 1 can diced San Marzano tomatoes
4. 4 cloves garlic
5. 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese
6. 1 cup fresh basil
7. Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350F/180C (160 Fan).
2. Mince the garlic cloves while the olive oil heats up in a skillet on medium high, and once the oil is hot, add the garlic and sauté for a few minutes. (Make sure they don’t burn!)
3. Add 1.5 cups of the diced tomatoes to the skillet, stir, and leave on medium heat. Season with salt and pepper, and stir every minute or so.
4. Follow the box instructions and make the pizza dough. Shape the dough on a pizza stone or baking tray covered with parchment paper.
5. Bake the pizza dough without any toppings for 5 minutes. While it’s baking, slice the mozzarella into thin discs and julienne the basil 
6. Remove the pizza dough from the oven. Spread the tomato sauce over the dough, and add the mozzarella discs. Bake for an additional 12-15 minutes.
7. When it’s done, sprinkle the julienned basil on top and serve with some red wine!
