HOMEMADE MEAT AND POTATOES PIZZA

DOUGH

2 ½ cups flour

1 small pack active dry yeast

1 tsp white sugar

1 cup warm water

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp salt

1 – 2 tbsp cornmeal

SAUCE:

1½ cups tomato sauce

1 tsp dried oregano

Pinch of salt

Pinch of sugar

Few dashes Worcestershire sauce

½ tsp pepper sauce or red pepper flakes (optional)

TOPPINGS:

1 cup cooked minced meat

5 – 6 new potatoes, parboiled and thinly sliced

1 red or green sweet pepper, diced

2 cups grated mozzarella cheese

1 cup grated cheddar cheese

Olive oil

1 tsp dried oregano

Dough: Mix the yeast together with the warm water and sugar. Let stand for 5 – 10 minutes until
foamy.
In another bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and the oil and stir
well until the dough comes together. Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth.
Place dough in a greased bowl and let rest for ½ hour. The dough should be enough for 2 pizzas.
Sauce : Meanwhile, mix all sauce ingredients together in a small pot over medium heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a round pizza pan. Sprinkle with a little
cornmeal.
Punch dough down and divide in half. Roll one half dough out on a floured surface and place on the prepared pan. Spread the sauce evenly over the dough. Top with a mix of the grated cheeses. Sprinkle the minced meat and peppers over the cheese.
Drizzle a little olive oil over the potato slices and sprinkle with the oregano. Place the potato slices decoratively in an even layer over the meat and peppers. Sprinkle a little extra cheese over the potatoes.
Bake in preheated oven for approximately 20 – 25 minutes or until pizza is golden brown and cheese bubbling. Slice and serve.
