Step-by-Step Preparation Technique
1. Prepare the Crust
If you chose to use a store-bought pizza crust, ensure it is well-thawed (if frozen) and place it on a baking tray greased with a little oil or butter. If you prefer to make your own crust, you can find many recipes online for a simple pizza dough.
2. Boil the Eggs
Place the eggs in cold water, bringing them to a boil. Let them boil for 10 minutes to achieve hard-boiled eggs. After boiling, cool them under cold running water and peel.
3. Assemble the Pizza
Spread the pizza crust with the 3 tablespoons of tomato paste, ensuring to cover the entire surface. Generously sprinkle oregano to add a pleasant aroma.
4. Add Ingredients
- Place mozzarella on the pizza crust, evenly distributed.
- Add the chopped turkey ham in small pieces.
- Slice the hard-boiled eggs and sprinkle them on top.
- Spread the slices of processed cheese, red and green peppers, as well as the sliced olives.
5. Final Touch
Add a final layer of mozzarella and sprinkle a little oregano for extra flavor.
6. Bake the Pizza
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the tray in the oven and let the pizza bake for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
7. Serve
Once the pizza is ready, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly before cutting. You can garnish with slices of red pepper or olives for a more appealing look.
Serving Suggestions and Variations
This pizza is perfect to be served alongside a fresh salad, adding a touch of freshness to your meal. You can also experiment with other ingredients such as mushrooms, pineapple, or various types of cheese to personalize the recipe and give it a unique twist.
