Step by step
Kitchen tip
To make pizzas for the freezer, double up on the dough quantities to make four bases. Before you cook the pizzas that you’ll be eating for dinner, top two bases just with tomato sauce and cook for about half the given recipe time below until the crust is set and pale gold. Cool, wrap well and freeze for up to 2 months. When ready to serve, preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas 6. Scatter your toppings and cheese onto the frozen pizza bases and bake for 8-10 minutes, directly on the oven shelves.
-
Make the pizza dough at least 1 hour before you plan to cook the pizzas.

- Depending on your chosen cooking method (see instructions above), preheat the oven to 240°C, fan 220°C, gas 9 with two baking trays or pizza stones in to get hot, or if using the hob/grill cooking method, preheat the grill to high.
- Shape the dough into two bases, spread each with a quarter of the tomato sauce and scatter with the mozzarella, basil, chorizo, peppers and most of the feta, then drizzle with a little oil. Cook according to your chosen method.
- Meanwhile, gently heat the honey with the chilli flakes and a pinch of salt. Drizzle this over the pizzas and scatter with the rest of the feta and extra basil leaves. Slice into wedges to serve.
