I just love [[Spam]] so this is a must-make. [[Spam]] cooks up really well when grilled at a very high heat so is ideal for a [[Stone baked pizza]].

If you really don't like the idea of using [[Spam]], use fresh [[ham]] instead.

''SPAM - Perfect on a pizza''

5/5 

Despite its bad name (in food and in email), Spam can be so brilliant on a pizza. It also tastes much less greasy when hot.

{{RecipeIngredients
| 1 portion [[Pizza dough|pizza dough]] - Makes 2 pizzas
| 150 g ball of [[Mozzarella cheese|mozzarella cheese]], torn into pieces
| 1 340 g can of [[Spam]] original (chopped pork and ham), cut into thin strips.
| [[Extra virgin olive oil]] for drizzling
| 1 cup [[Spicy tomato sauce|spicy tomato sauce]]
| Handful of [[Basil leaves|basil leaves]], torn
| 1 tablespoon [[Fine yellow cornmeal|cornmeal]]

}}

===[[Mise en place]]===
* Make the [[Pizza dough|pizza dough]] as instructed
* If using a [[pizza stone]], preheat the [[pizza stone]] under a very hot [[grill]] for about 20 minutes. Place it about 8cm (3") from the heat source.

===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| Make 1 pizza per person
| Dust the work surface with [[Fine yellow cornmeal|fine yellow cornmeal]]
| Stretch or roll the [[Dough|dough]] into two thin rounds
| Prick the pizza all over with a fork. This prevents it puffing up too much and burning while it is cooking
| Place the pizza dough on a [[pizza peel]] that has been dusted with [[Fine yellow cornmeal|fine yellow cornmeal]]
| With a deft move, slide the pizza dough from the [[pizza peel]], on to the [[pizza stone]].
| Cook for about 2 minutes on one side only or until lightly browned.
| Remove from the oven, flip over and add the topping.
| Repeat for the second pizza whilst you prepare the first.
| Drizzle the [[Pizza|pizza]] with [[Olive oil|olive oil]] and spread the pizza with ½ of the [[Tomato sauce|tomato sauce]]
| Top with torn [[Mozzarella|mozzarella]] and sliced [[Spam]].
| Add a final drizzle of [[olive oil]] or for a spicy touch, some [[chili oil]].
| [[Bake]] for 3 or 4 minutes or until the [[Cheese|cheese]] browns a little - watch it carefully as it can burn easily.
| Remove and sprinkle with torn [[Basil|basil]].
| Keep the fist pizza warm at the bottom of the oven whilst you make the second.
| Serve hot
}}
===Chef's note===
If you don't have a [[pizza peel]] use an upturned plate or a flat baking tray, dusted with [[Fine yellow cornmeal|fine yellow cornmeal]] and some deft handwork to slide the dough onto the stone.
