Pizza with pineapples and ham
Making pizza with pineapples and ham at home, to be thin, tasty, juicy, like in a pizzeria, is very simple. The main thing is to prepare good dough (or use ready-made bought dough). Another important condition is that the pizza is cooked at very high temperatures; ideally, it should be baked at 300-350 degrees, but not everyone’s oven allows this. So heat the oven to the maximum and bake for literally 10 minutes, then it will turn out soft, tender, with a slightly crispy crust. There are countless options for pizza toppings, but pizza with pineapples and ham has already become a classic. This is the pizza I want to make today.
Ingredients
- yeast dough – 320 g;
- mayonnaise – 1 tablespoon;
- ketchup – 1-1.5 tablespoons;
- ham – 150 g;
- canned pineapple – 150 g;
- onion – 1 pc;
- olives – to taste;
- mozzarella – 150 g;
- Provençale herbs – 0.5 teaspoons.
Cooking
1. Prepare all the necessary ingredients. You can use any dough you like. I have pizza dough with dry yeast with the addition of an egg; you can use yeast dough with kefir, with milk, or even use ready-made frozen yeast or puff pastry.
2. First, prepare the sauce. Mix mayonnaise and ketchup, add half a teaspoon of Provençale herbs. You can also add dried garlic. Mix well. The proportions can be adjusted according to your taste preferences.
3. Cut the ham into small pieces. The canned pineapple I have is already sliced, I won’t cut it any smaller.
4. Roll the dough into a large round layer 3-5 mm thick according to the size of your baking dish. The diameter of my baking tray is 36 cm.
5. Grease the entire surface of the dough with the prepared sauce.
6. Place the pieces of ham on top.
7. Then add the pieces of pineapple.
8. You can also add other components, for example, onion rings and olives. Pickled mushrooms, corn, or anything else will also work.
9. Top generously with grated cheese. Mozzarella is the best choice, but any hard cheese will do.
10. By this time, the oven should already be well heated, at least to 200 degrees, but if possible, then to 250-280. Send the pizza to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, depending on the temperature.
11. The pizza with pineapples and ham is ready. Sprinkle it with finely chopped basil or green onions, whatever you have and prefer. Serve the pizza hot. Enjoy your meal!
