Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ 390°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 and a generous pinch of salt, pepper and sugar
Add 5 tbsp [10 tbsp]cold water 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
Slice the chestnut mushrooms finely and add them to a bowl
Drizzle over half of the truffle-flavoured extra virgin olive oil (save the rest for later!)
Add a generous drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and stir it all together until evenly coated in the oil
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 with the back of a spoon
Top with the torn mozzarella
6
Add the sliced mushroom and put the tray in the oven for 13-15 min or until the cheese has melted and the bases are crisp – these are your truffled mushroom pizzas
7
Meanwhile, peel half the Italian hard cheese until you end up with a pile of cheese shavings
Grate the remaining cheese
