Ingredients

BASE SAUCE
1 x 400g can good-quality whole peeled tomatoes
TOPPINGS
125g fresh mozzarella (I use Massimo’s Fior di Latte)
100g raw pork sausage, skinned, pinched into chunks (I use Woody’s New York Fennel Sausage)
caramelised leek (thinly slice ½ leek, caramelise low and slow in butter or oil, then finish with lemon & salt)
relish (blitz together equal parts pickled peppadews, pickled green chillies and gherkins. This is a versatile condiment for the fridge, but sub anything ‘pickley’ you have on hand)
25g Vintage Danbo (I use Hohepa) or similar hard cheese

I prefer this as a thin, round pizza.
