Calabria is known for its love of fiery chillies, so it’s no surprise their popular ‘nduja sausage sizzles with vibrant spicy flavour. Top our flame-baked pizza base with sweet Romano pepper, fresh red chilli and 'nduja to taste that Calabrian heat at home.

Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ 395°F/ Gas 6
Put a large baking tray (or two) in the oven to heat up (this will stop the pizza bottoms from going soggy!)
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
2
Add the tomato paste to a bowl with the chopped garlic, dried oregano and a generous pinch of salt, pepper and sugar
Add 4 tbsp [8 tbsp]cold water and a drizzle of olive oil and give everything a good mix up – this is your tomato base
3
Drain and pat the mozzarella dry with kitchen paper (squeeze as much liquid out as you can!)
Tear the drained mozzarella into rough, bite-sized pieces
4
Deseed the Romano pepper[s] (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and cut into thin strips
Slice the red chilli[es] finely
Tip: De-seed the chilli[es] first if you're not a fan of spice
5
Remove the heated tray[s] from the oven and add the pizza bases
Divide the tomato base between the pizza bases and spread it evenly all over them
Top the pizzas with the ripped mozzarella, sliced pepper, sliced chilli (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and 'nduja
6
Put the tray in the oven for 15 min or until the cheese has melted and the pizza bases are crispy – this is your Calabrese pizza with 'nduja
7
While the pizzas are cooking, combine the balsamic vinegar with 2 tbsp [4 tbsp]olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper – this is your balsamic dressing
Wash and drain the rocket
