Instructions
- Roll out the pizza dough. If you like thin crust, roll as thin as possible. When ready, transfer the rolled-out dough onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment paper. Top it with half of the sauce, shredded cheese, tuna and sweetcorn.
- Repeat with the second pizza.
- Bake in the oven at 400° Fahrenheit (200° Celsius) for 10 minutes or until the bottom is nice and brown (see note 7).
- Best enjoyed warm!
Notes
- You will need enough pizza dough for 2 medium pizzas (about a pound/450 grams). You can also use pre-cooked pizza crust or check my recipe for homemade pizza if needed.
- I have a recipe for a Quick Pizza Sauce on the blog, but you can use shop-bought or any pizza sauce you like.
- Cheddar, mozzarella, edam, or gouda work great.
- I used tuna in olive oil. You can use any kind of tuna (in brine or normal oil) as you will be draining the liquid.
- Either canned or frozen sweetcorn can be used. Feel free to use as much as you like.
- If you have a large baking sheet/tray, you might be able to fit both pizzas on one.
- The longer you keep your pizza in the oven the crispier the edges will get. However, if left in too long, you might end up with a dried-out pizza. For that reason, always check the bottom first. If you see nice brown spots, you can take it out. Sometimes, the edges might still be quite pale, but the pizza is ready.
