03 — Method
- Preheat the oven to 250 °C (475 °F) fan with the baking sheet inside, for a crisp base.
- Roll the pizza dough into a 30 cm (12 in) round on a floured surface, a little thicker than Neapolitan — the American style is hearty.
- Spread the 200 g (¾ cup + 1 tbsp) tomato purée in a spiral from the center out, leaving a 1 cm (½ in) border, then sprinkle with dried oregano and chili flakes.
- Scatter the 200 g (7 oz) mozzarella pieces and grated cheddar generously over the top, right to the edge of the sauce.
- Arrange the pepperoni slices, slightly overlapping: they curl up as they bake into little cups of flavorful fat.
- Drizzle with olive oil and bake on the hot sheet for 10 to 12 minutes at 250 °C (475 °F), until the pepperoni is crisp at the edges. Add pepper and serve hot.
