Pizza Argentina

Recipes Main Courses Quick Meals
The Argentine "Pizza de Molde" (pizza baked in a tin) is the opposite of the thin Italian pizza. Here the dough is soft, like a focaccia, and the amount of cheese is bewildering. In the famous pizzerias of Buenos Aires, the cheese runs down the side of the slice. This pizza is about communal eating and abundance.

Instructions

1 ✓

Oil a high-sided baking tray. Press the dough into it to fill the shape. Leave to prove in the tray for 20 minutes.

Tip: Proving in the tray gives the characteristic spongy, soft structure.
2 ✓

Spread with the sauce, pre-bake at 200°C for 10 minutes.

Tip: Pre-baking prevents the centre of the thick dough from remaining raw under the lots of cheese.
3 ✓

Sprinkle with plenty of mozzarella and oregano. Return to the oven until the cheese has completely melted and has golden brown spots.

Tip: Here the amount of cheese is key: it should completely cover the dough, right to the edge ("cheese blanket").
4 ✓

Remove, add olives and fresh basil.

Tip: Let cool slightly, otherwise the hot cheese will run when cutting.
