Pizza Capricciosa

Recipe video above. Topped with artichokes, ham, olives and mushrooms with a tomato pizza sauce, this is a pizza that's almost uniquely Australian that we are VERY fond of! Though you can find it in some parts of Italy, you won't see it in many other places around the world.I just love the combination - and that you can be generous with the toppings without overwhelming the pizza. Cook times:Classic yeast pizza dough - 5 to 6 hrs dough rising (total) | 10 min prep | 10 min cookNo-yeast pizza dough - 0 min dough rising | 10 min prep | 10 min oil steeping | 10 min cookStore bought pizza dough - 5 min prep | 10 min prep | 10 min cook** To make more than one pizza (who ever makes just one??!) slide the servings scaler **

1/2 tsp white sugar

1/2 tbsp water

1/2 garlic clove (, finely minced (optional))

1/8 tsp EACH dried parsley, basil and oregano ((optional))

1 1/3 cup (130 g) mozzarella cheese, freshly shredded ((Note 2))

1/2 cup artichokes (from a jar, preferably oil, drained & sliced (Note 3))

3 button mushrooms (, cut into 3 mm / 1/8" slices)

Instructions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 250°C / 480°F (both fan and standard). Allow time to get it nice and hot!!
Step 2
Pizza sauce - Mix the ingredients in a small bowl then set aside.
Step 3
Pizza base - Make and stretch out your chosen pizza base (no rolling pin!), stretch onto a pizza pan or baking tray per the directions in your chosen pizza base. (Note 4 for pizza stone)
Step 4
Top - Spread the pizza sauce on the pizza, leaving a 1 cm/1/2" border along the edge. Sprinkle with cheese first, then drape the ham randomly across the surface, sprinkle with olives, artichoke slices and mushrooms. (If using the no-yeast pizza base, spray/brush exposed crust with olive oil.)
