Method of preparation :
- Begin by preheating a baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven to 220°C/fan200°C/gas 7 or as high as your oven will go. Meanwhile, lay the slices of pancetta on another baking sheet and cook in the oven for about 2 minutes until they turn golden and crispy. Once done, remove the pancetta from the oven and set it aside.
- Now, stretch and roll the pizza dough into a rectangle or rustic circle. You can refer to the opposite page for guidance on how to stretch the dough.
- Carefully remove the hot baking sheet or pizza stone from the oven, then place the rolled dough on top. Quickly spread the tomato sauce over the base, ensuring to leave a 1cm gap around the edge. Next, evenly distribute the cubed mozzarella over the sauce.
- Place the pizza in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the pizza base becomes crisp and golden, and the mozzarella has melted to perfection.
- Once the pizza is ready, remove it from the oven and generously top it with the sun-dried tomatoes and a handful of fresh rocket leaves. Drizzle the Caesar dressing gently over the pizza to add a burst of flavor.
- Place the crisp pancetta slices on top of the dressed pizza. Finish it off with a pinch of dried oregano and a generous sprinkle of grated Grana Padano for that irresistible cheesy touch.
- Serve your Rocket Pizza immediately while it’s hot and bubbling with flavor. It’s a culinary masterpiece that’s sure to impress your taste buds with its unique combination of ingredients. Enjoy!
