Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Basic pizza dough
2 c (about 8 oz) shredded fresh
Mozzarella cheese
2 c (about 1 lb) ricotta cheese
1/2 c (about 2 oz) freshly grated
Parmesan cheese
Cornmeal, if using a pizza
Peel
1/2 c Olive oil, approximately
1 c Peeled, seeded, chopped, and
Well-drained vine-ripened or
Canned Italian plum tomatoes
5 oz Prosciutto or other
Flavourful ham, slivered
3 Garlic cloves, minced or
Pressed (optional)
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
In a large bowl, combine the mozzarella, ricotta, and 1/4 cup of the
Parmesan; reserve.
Roll out or stretch the pizza dough into circles. Working with 1 circle at
a time, place the dough on a pizza pan generously sprinkled with cornmeal
or on a lightly oiled pizza screen. Brush dough all over with olive oil,
then cover half of dough circle with a generous portion of the cheeses,
leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges. Sprinkle with the tomatoes,
prosciutto, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Fold the uncovered side
over the filling and press the edges of the dough together to seal. Brush
the dough with olive oil.
Transfer to an oven preheated to 500 degrees and bake until the crust is
golden brown and puffy, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven to a
plate, lightly brush with olive oil, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and
serve immediately.
Serves 4 to 6 as a main course, 8 to 10 as a starter.
