How to make Pan Pizza

Tips from the cook

  • Oil the pan well, so the base crisps and the pizza slides out.
  • Press the dough out evenly and thin, so the middle cooks through.
  • Keep the heat low and the lid on, so the base browns without burning while the cheese melts.
  • Cook the mince and bacon until browned first, as they do not cook much on the pizza.
