Delicious Hawaiian Pizza
Hey Friends, welcome to another episode of the PIZZA SERIES. if you do not like ham or pineapple on pizza, pease look away LOL but can I also say you are missing!! hehe. I know some people who cannot understand such a combination (my hubby inclusive) but hey I believe it tastes amazing! For my Hawaiian pizza I love a kick of spice and so I add some jalapeños (totally optional) but its delicious and gives it flavour! To make this,
You will need:
1 large cooking spoon/cup of pizza sauce
½ cup of pineapple chunks (diced in small pieces)
½ cup of shredded/grated mozzarella cheese
½ cup of shredded/grated Parmesan NOTE: Parmesan is optional; if you choose to use only mozzarella, then substitute this measurement with mozzarella.
½ cup diced bacon lardon/pancetta
½ cup chopped or shredded ham
5-8 Jalapeño slices/rings [optional]
Directions
Preheat your Oven to 250ºC or 470ºF for about 30 minutes before placing the pizza into the oven. Oven needs to be very HOT.
Rub some flour on the pizza pan so the stretched dough does not stick and prepare your pizza topping. Pre-cook lardon in the oven or in a pan
Get your risen dough and and stretch using your hands or using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a floured surface into your desired shape. Stretch/Roll it out until the dough is flat not thick or depending on how thin or thick you want your crust! The dough will rise while in the oven, so you want to take that into consideration.
Place a Scoop of the pizza sauce and spread around the dough.
Add the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese onto the dough and add the pineapple chunks, ham and diced pancetta or bacon.
Bake in the oven for about 10– 12 minutes or till crust is brown and cheese is bubbling.
Drizzle olive oil around the pizza crust edges for a golden look. Let pizza rest for a minute and slice away!
Hope you enjoy this as much as I did! It’s my favourite pizza!
Cheers,
Joba
