Equipment
- Two 20cm (8 inch) pie tins
- rolling pin
Ingredients
For the Pizza Dough (Optional - Feel Free to Use Ready Made!)
- 250 g plain flour
- 250 g strong white bread flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp fast action yeast
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tbsp garlic pepper
- 325 ml warm water
For the Pizza Rolls Topping
- 750 mls tomato and basil pasta sauce
- 20 kalamata olives, sliced
- 2 handfuls fresh basil leaves
- 50 g vegan cheese, grated
- freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Make the Pizza Dough
- Combine the flours, yeast, salt, oregano and garlic pepper in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook.
- Add the oil and warm water (not hot).
- Mix your dough on low speed for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Turn into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a tea towel and leave to prove in a warm place for 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.
Make the Sauce
- Add your pasta sauce to a small pan and simmer for about 15 minutes or until reduced and thickened - no one wants a runny pizza and it makes rolling tricky!
Assemble Your Pizza Rolls
- Preheat your oven to 200C/390F
- Lightly grease two 20cm (8") pie tins
- Knock back your dough (poke it with your fingers), divide it into two equal pieces
- Roll each piece of dough out to form a rectangle measuring approximately 20cm x 40cm (8" x 16")
- Share the tomato sauce between the two pizzas and spread evenly on the dough leaving a small margin around the edges
- Sprinkle with olives, basil and cheese (or your chosen toppings), keeping some to prinkle on top. Add black pepper to taste.
- Starting with one of the long edges carefully roll the pizzas up, tucking the filling in as you go, to make two long sausages.
- Leave to rest in the fridge for about 20 minutes.
- Slice each pizza sausage into 12 pieces.
- Put one pizza roll in the centre of your pie tins and then nestle the rest in a circle around it with their faces upwards so you can see the rolled fillings .
- Sprinkle with your leftover toppings and bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until browning.
- Serve! If you want to turn it out, put a plate on top and turn your pie dish upside down - the pizza rolls should just slide out onto it.
