Real Deal Pizzas - American hot

Ingredients
1 frozen organic thin and crispy stone baked pizza base (Waitrose)
1 large tomato, sliced
3 heaped tablespoons ready-grated mozzarella
1 rounded tablespoon fresh ready-grated Parmesan
75g hot pepperoni slices (Asda is good)
5 pieces jalapeño pepper, from a jar, chopped
10 pitted black Kalamata olives (Sainsbury’s or other)

Method

Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 7, 220°C with a baking sheet. Place the pizza base on the hot baking sheet.

Now arrange the slices of tomato on top and season.

Next, sprinkle the two cheeses all over and place the pepperoni slices over that – covering the whole base apart from the edge.

Scatter the jalapeño pepper over and the olives, then on to a high shelf of the oven with it, for 15-18 minutes.
