Puff pastry pizza

Is it a pizza or a pie? Nobody will have time to care, they'll be so busy eating it and asking for seconds. Quick to make, cheap, tasty and a good use of store cupboard ingredients plus whatever is languishing in the bottom of the fridge.

Ingredients:
500g readymade puff pastry
Ball of mozzarella
225g cheddar cheese - or whatever cheese you have in the fridge
Preferred pizza topping - I used passata mixed with dried oregano, basil, sea salt and olive oil
Preferred toppings - I used thinly-sliced courgette, a small red onion and a handful of mushrooms

Preheat oven to 200 degrees fan assisted.


On a floured surface cut the block of pastry into quarters.


Roll out each quarter very thinly into a rough square.


Spread a couple of tablespoons of tomato topping up to the edge of the pastry.


Cover with a scattering of cheese and dot with any other topping of your choice.






Bake in a hot oven 200 fan assisted on a baking sheet for 10 to 15 minutes. Do not worry if the pizza puffs up alarmingly in the centre - it will settle back down once removed from the oven.


Slice, eat and enjoy.
