Instructions
Step 1
Making the dough
Add flour and water into a large bowl.
Add yeast and salt to opposite sides of the bowl.
Mix well by hand until the dough begins to come together.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead lightly for 5-8 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Lightly grease the bowl and place the dough inside.
Cover the bowl with a tea towel and prove for 1 hour until doubled in size.
Lightly flour a baking tray.
Gently knead the dough to knock out excess air.
Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces.
Shape each piece into a ball and place on the prepared baking tray.
Prove for 30 minutes until the dough has risen.
Step 2
Making the sauce
Add tomatoes, salt and olive oil into a bowl and blend with a hand blender until smooth.
Step 3
Making the pizzas
Preheat the pizza oven on setting 5 until the light turns off.
Heavily dust a work surface with semolina to prevent the dough from sticking to the peel.
Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces.
Shape each dough ball into a disc about 28 cm (11" in diameter), ensuring there is a defined crust around the edge.
Spread 4 Tbsp of the blended tomatoes on each pizza, avoiding the crust.
Top with mozzarella, pepperoni and pickled chillies.
Step 4
Slide the semolina-dusted peels under the pizza and transfer it onto the baking stone, then close the upper lid.
Bake for 3-4 minutes, rotating the pizza halfway through, until the dough is cooked through and the cheese is bubbling.
Transfer the pizza onto a serving plate and repeat the same process with the second pizza.
Drizzle the pizzas with hot honey.
Serve.
Tip: This recipe makes more sauce than needed for two pizzas – any leftovers can be portioned and frozen in an airtight container, ready to go for your next pizza party. Dusting your work surface and pizza peels with coarse semolina is the best way to prevent your dough from sticking. If you cannot find coarse semolina, you can use flour instead, however, it may burn more quickly when the pizza is placed on a hot pizza stone.
