- 2 balls of mozzarella cheese
- 1 small white onion, very thinly sliced
- Olive oil
- A few small red chillies, finely chopped - optional

Mise en place
- Pre heat a pizza stone under a very hot grill for about 20 minutes. Place it about 8cm from the heat source.

Method

- Bake for about 3 minutes on one side only until it puffs up and is slightly browned
- Remove from the oven, flip over and add the topping
- Spread a few tablespoons of tomato sauce over the uncooked side of the base.
- Sprinkle with the cooked roast pork and dab apple sauce here and there.
- Layer a few rings of finely sliced onions ove the pork.
- Tear the mozzerella ball in to pieces and add to the pizza.
- Sprinkle with chopped chillies if using.
- Drizzle with olive oil and season with freshly ground black pepper.
- Slide on to the pizza stone and grill until the cheese is toasted. This should take about 4 minutes. Keep this pizza warm at the bottom of the oven while you make the second pizza.
