Prepare the pizza dough
First prepare the pizza dough, if you are making our recipe, simply click the "quick pizza dough" in the ingredients list and follow the instructions.
-
Let the dough proof
Divide the risen dough between four equal parts and shape into balls (each should weight around 130g / 4.5 oz). Cover with a kitchen towel and let proof for about 30 - 50 minutes at room temperature or until doubled in size.
-
Fry the dough
Set a casserole dish over a medium high heat. Pour in the vegetable oil and let it heat to 180 °C / 355 °F. Stretch each dough ball into a pizza shape (around 15 cm / 6-inch in diameter). Fry each pizza for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the dough gets golden brown. Remove with kitchen tongs and place on a baking tray lined with kitchen towels to drain any excess oil. Preheat your oven to 250 °C / 480 °F.
-
Topping
Add the topping of your choosing. We created three delicious options. Topping 1: Add a generous dollop of tomato sauce, then spread some mozzarella over the top, pop in the oven and then add fresh basil leaves.) For topping 2 spread sour cream over the fried pizza dough. Add the blanched and drained kale, chorizo slices, gorgonzola and mozzarella. Add fresh grated parmesan cheese at the end when the pizza is already baked. Last but not least, for topping 3, spread sour cream over the fried pizza dough, add the shredded mozzarella and onion slices. Remove from the oven and add the chopped chives.

Bake
Place your pizza on a baking dish lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven for about 5 - 8 minutes at 250 °C / 480 °F. Serve and enjoy.
