Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C / 220°C fan-forced. • Halve each ball of pizza dough and set aside to rest for 20 minutes. • Finely chop tomato and garlic. Thinly slice onion (see ingredients) and fresh chilli (if using).
TIP: The resting time helps make the dough easier to work with plus improves the pizza base texture. Rest for minimum 20 minutes or up to 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine pork mince, fine breadcrumbs, Aussie spice blend and the egg. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of pork mixture into small meatballs (6-8 per person). Transfer to a plate. • Heat frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook meatballs, turning, until browned, 1-2 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Transfer to a plate.
• Return frying pan to medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Add tomato to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 minutes. • Add garlic and tomato paste, and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the water, butter and brown sugar, and stir to combine, 1 minute. Season to taste and set aside.
• Lightly dust flour over a clean surface. Flour your hands and a rolling pin, then stretch and roll each ball of dough into a 25cm circle. • Transfer pizza bases to lined oven trays.
TIP: Dusting the surface and your hands with flour helps prevent the dough from sticking.
• Spread tomato sauce evenly across bases using the back of a spoon. • Top with meatballs, onion and chilli, then sprinkle over shredded Cheddar cheese. • Bake until cheese is melted and golden, 15-20 minutes.
• Slice pork meatball pizzas. Tear over parsley. Enjoy!
