This is a quick and easy meal to serve as a starter once your pizza oven is up to temperature. Instead of a tomato base I’ve made an easy wild garlic pesto and topped with sliced chorizo, torn mozzarella and it’s a real crowd-pleaser served with a crunch salad and some chilli oil.
Method
Preheat your pizza oven to 250-300˚C and roll out your puff pastry on a floured surface.
Make a simple wild garlic pesto in a food processor and season to taste. Then spread this on the base of the pastry and top with slices of chorizo and mozzarella.
Bake for 8-10 mins until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese has melted. Serve with a pinch of finely chopped wild garlic to garnish.
