Ingredients:
1 bread dough pizza base
1 batch special pizza tomato sauce
60g blue cheese, sliced
125g artichoke hearts in oil, sliced
1/2 small red onion, chopped
45g mature Cheddar cheese, grated
2 tbsp freshly-grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp fresh Thyme, chopped
reserved oil from the artichoke hearts for drizzling
salt and black pepper, to taste
mixed salad leaves
cherry tomatoes, halved
Method:
Turn the pizza dough onto a lightly-floured surface and either roll or pull until it's about 25cm in diameter. Transfer the dough to a lightly-greased baking sheet then using your finger and thumb turn up the edges of the dough to form a lip then cover the dough with a kitchen towel and set aside in a warm place to raise for 10 minutes.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the surface of the pizza, covering it almost to the edge. Arrange the blue cheese slices over the tomato sauce then scatter the artichoke heart pieces on top. In a bowl combine the Cheddar, Parmesan and thyme and scatter this over the pizza. Drizzle a little of the artichoke oil over the top then season to taste.
Place the pizza in an oven pre-heated to 200°C and bake for about 18 minutes, or until the edges of the base are golden and crisp.
Cut into wedges and serve immediately accompanied by a salad of mixed salad leaves and cherry tomato halves.
