Mini Pizzas – Quickly Filled

The mini pizzas

1. First unpack as many mini pizzas as you want. Mini pizzas are available in every supermarket and look more like thin paninis. However, you can also use toasties (e.g. multigrain) or a “normal” (large) pizza dough, which is then rolled out. Lay out the base used on baking paper on a baking sheet.

The sauce

1. First the sauce is made. You take about 10 cherry tomatoes (it depends on the size) and chop them very small until they look almost like mousse – but small pieces should still be retained (I think it tastes very fresh and natural and that’s why I don’t use it right away a complete tomato sauce). Put the chopped tomatoes AND the tomato water, which will be spread on your board, in a small bowl. In it you also put a tablespoon of tomato ketchup and a large batch of tomato paste from the tube (I guess 1 tablespoon) and stir the whole thing. This creates a more “sauce-like” consistency. Then add pizza spices as desired. I would recommend oregano and possibly also thyme, basil, pepper, rocket, salt, etc. or ready-made pizza-spice mixes. The whole thing is stirred and then placed on the floor

The cheese

1. I took Emmental cheese in slices and chopped it up, but you could also buy grated or chopped cheese and, if necessary, chop it a little smaller. If you want, you can also add Gouda or similar. I also added a little Parmesan to get different cheese flavors. The finished mixture is then generously sprinkled over the pizzas until they cover everything.

The topping

1. I cut the remaining cherry tomatoes into thin slices and spread them on the pizzas. Then I cut the mushrooms into small pieces and added them. We also wanted small slices of ham and salami on the pizzas. We also spread small pieces of anchovy on a pizza, which we also chopped up a little beforehand. Just choose your favorite topping – maybe cut it a little smaller for the mini pizzas – and put it on top!

Oven & done!

1. Then the whole thing comes in the oven 🙂 Depending on the size and dough, this is of course different. On average, the oven should be 180-200 ° and bake the pizzas on a medium setting for about 15 minutes. But that also varies, so check it out from time to time! And then: Bon appetit!
