Method

  Mix up the pizza base according to pack instructions. While it proves, prepare the topping. Preheat the oven according to the temperature advised on the pack (about 220C/425F/Gas 7).

  Place the tomatoes in a bowl, cover with boiling water from the kettle and leave to stand for a minute. Drain, rinse in cold water then peel away the skins. Roughly chop the tomatoes and place in a bowl with the garlic, oregano, oil and salt and pepper to taste. If your tomatoes are very juicy, you might want to strain off some of the juice.

  Roll out the pizza dough to a round circle about 30cm (or two rounds about 19cm wide) and place on a large baking sheet. Top with the tomato mixture, spreading it to the edges and leaving a 2cm border clear. Scatter over the cheese, basil and olives. Drizzle over the oil.
