An idea for a summery, Greek-inspired pizza. Light, fresh and exceptionally tasty. I just can’t stop making this just now. 🙂
Summer Pizza
Base – See flatbread recipe here. When rolling out the dough, however, use semolina rather than flour to dust the surface. To ensure a crispy base without a stone oven, I like to bake the base in a very hot oven for a couple of minutes before adding the tomato sauce and toppings.
Tomato Sauce – Saute a small onion in olive oil until soft. Add a garlic clove and cook for another minute before adding 4 very ripe, chopped tomatoes. Cook gently for an hour or so until thick and jammy. Add some torn basil.
Toppings – Crumbled feta, capers, olives,, halved cherry tomatoes and a sprinkling of thyme. Add rocket when pizza comes out of the (still very hot) oven.

It looks gorgeous and delicious!

That does look like an amazing summer pizza! Love all the fresh flavors and colors.
looks absolutely delicious – I love the look of fresh rocket on a pizza – a great way to bypass the need for a side salad!
Gosh that looks good Wendy. Wonderful base and I do like a bit of rocket on pizza. Delicious.
Hi Wendy
