Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 250°C / 480°F (230°C fan). Allow time to get it nice and hot!!
  • Garlic infused oil – Mix olive oil and garlic in a small bowl. Set aside to infuse with flavour for 10 minutes.
  • Pizza base – Make and roll out chosen pizza base, stretch onto pan.
  • Top – Spread oil (and all garlic) onto the base, leaving the crust baked. Sprinkle with salt, parmesan then mozzarella.
  • Bake 8 minutes, turning after 4 minutes, or until the cheese has golden spots. Cut and eat, stat!

Notes

For the best results, it's recommended to finely mince the garlic using your knife and smear it into a paste for full flavour infusion. Freshly shredded cheese melts better than pre-shredded cheese due to anti-clumping agents.
