The Quickest Margherita Pizza Ever

Ingredients

For sauce:

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

350 ml tomato puree

3 medium-sized tomatoes (chopped)

3 garlic cloves (chopped)

1 small onion (finely chopped)

1/2 tsp sugar

Salt to taste

1/2 tsp oregano & basil each

For toppings:

1 Tablespoon olive oil

2 Cloves roasted garlic, finely chopped

200g Mozzarella cheese, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick pieces

2 plum tomatoes, sliced

A handful of fresh basil

Fresh ground black pepper, to taste

For dough:

Get a fresh store-bought pizza base from the supermarket.

Steps:

In a microwave-safe glass bowl add olive oil along with onions and garlic. Heat this mixture for 3 mins at 100 percent micro power level. Now add the remaining ingredients for the sauce and continue to cook for 4 mins at 100 percent micro power level. Adjust the seasoning well.

Preheat the microwave oven by selecting convection mode at 180OC

In the meantime, take the uncooked pizza base, spread the sauce evenly and arrange the cheese over it. Place the sliced tomatoes and fresh basil leaves on top.

Bake the pizza in preheated oven at 180OC for 2 mins. Once done, take it out, sprinkle some ground pepper and it’s ready to serve!
