MINI ANTIPASTO PIZZAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Spray the parchment with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
• Prep all your toppings by cutting everything into small bite-size pieces.
• On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 4 pieces, then divide each piece into 4; you should end up with 16 pieces of dough. Spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray if the dough is sticking. Working one at a time, begin to stretch and flatten the dough with your hands, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking. Transfer it to the baking sheet and continue to stretch the dough until it's about 4 inches in diameter. Continue the process with the remaining pizza dough, placing 8 rounds on each baking sheet.
• Start with a spoonful of the sauce of your choice, spreading into a thin layer. Top your pizzas as desired, being sure to not load the pizza with too many toppings or it will not cook evenly.
• Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pizzas from the oven and top with fresh toppings and a light drizzle of olive oil. Transfer the pizzas to a platter and serve.

ANTIPASTI PLATTER WITH HOMEMADE FLATBREADS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the peppers, skin-side up, on a non-stick baking sheet and brush over 1 tbsp of the oil. Roast for 30 mins.
• Meanwhile, drain the olives and place in a serving bowl, drizzle over 1 tbsp oil, then stir through the garlic and lots of black pepper. Place the feta, tzatziki and radishes in serving bowls.
• Remove the peppers from the oven, place in a bowl and cover with cling film. Leave until cool enough to handle, then peel off the skins. Dab dry with kitchen paper, remove the stalk and seeds, then slice into thin strips. Place in a serving bowl with the remaining 1 tbsp oil and the balsamic vinegar or glaze.
• To make flatbreads, sift the flour into a bowl and stir in the yogurt. Bring the mixture together to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead gently until smooth. Roll into 4 balls, then use a rolling pin to roll into circles as thin as you can (approx 2mm), then shake off any excess flour. Heat a large frying pan, add the flatbreads one at a time and cook for 1-2 mins each side. Keep warm in a low oven while you cook the rest. To serve, arrange the meat on a platter with the antipasti. Serve with the flatbreads.

ANTIPASTO: BREAD MINI PARTY PIZZAS

Steps:

• Divide the dough into two parts. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 of an inch. Use a circular cup or cookie cutter about 4 inches in diameter, and cut as many circles of dough that you can.
• Heat the oil in a frying pan at least 1 inch deep until it reaches 375 degrees F. As you cut the dough circles they will shrink, so slightly stretch them out with your fingers and then drop four at a time into the hot oil. Cook just until they are golden brown on the bottom (about 2 minutes), and then turn. Once both sides are brown, remove from the oil with a slotted spoon onto a plate covered with paper towels. Push the dough together into a ball, and then roll it once again, cutting more dough circles, and frying them in the same manner. Use up the rest of the dough in this same manner.
• Once all of the dough has been fried, place the circles onto baking sheets. Spoon a little of the tomato sauce on top, spreading it with a spoon. Finely chop the fresh basil, adding a little to each pizza. Finally, top with the grated mozzarella. Place the pizzas under the broiler to melt the cheese, and serve hot. Buon Appetito.
