Earthy mushrooms layered over a crisp base bring warmth and umami to every slice. Garlic and olive oil amplify the flavour, making this pizza rustic and satisfying.
Ingredients
For pizza dough:
- All-purpose flour – 2 cups
- Instant yeast – 1 tsp
- Sugar – 1 tsp
- Salt – ¾ tsp
- Olive oil – 1½ tbsp
- Warm water – ¾ cup
For simple homemade tomato passata:
- Ripe tomatoes – 4 large
- Olive oil – 1 tbsp
- Salt – to taste
For topping:
- Mushrooms – 200 g, sliced
- Mozzarella cheese – 150 g
- Garlic – 2 cloves, sliced
- Olive oil – 1½ tbsp
- Salt and pepper – to taste
Method
- Mix flour, yeast, sugar, salt, olive oil, and water into a soft dough. Rest 60–90 minutes until doubled.
- Preheat oven to 240–250°C for 15 minutes.
- Sauté mushrooms with olive oil and garlic until lightly golden.
- Stretch the dough, spread the passata, add the mozzarella, then the mushrooms.
- Bake for 12–14 minutes until the crust is crisp and the cheese melts.
Tip: Avoid overcrowding mushrooms, or they’ll steam instead of roasting.
