The story behind
This pizza takes me back to backyard gatherings. I love the combination of the salty green olives with the sweetness of roasted red peppers; it's a balance that never fails. I remember the first time we made it, it disappeared in the blink of an eye because the aroma of the baked peppers attracted all the neighbors. It's ideal for a relaxed Saturday lunch, paired with a cold sangria or a hibiscus water with plenty of ice. It's best enjoyed under the shade of a tree, sharing stories and slices.
Instructions
-
1Roll out the dough on a flat surface to your desired thickness.
-
2Spread the tomato sauce evenly, leaving the edges free to crisp up.
-
3Cover with a good layer of mozzarella cheese so all the toppings stay in place.
-
4Distribute the ham, pepper strips, and olives across the entire surface.
-
5Bake at 200°C (400°F) until the cheese is bubbling and the crust has that golden color we love.
-
6Remove from the oven, let it rest for a minute so you don't burn yourself, and cut into large slices.
