Ingredients
- 2 part-baked baguettes (150g each)
- 1 tbsp butter
- 2 tsp vegetable oil
- 1 onion, 1/2 finely chopped, 1/2 thinly sliced
- 300g mushrooms, cut into small pieces
- 1 small garlic clove, chopped
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- 50g grated cheddar
- 75g ham or smoked pork loin, chopped
- 75g Polish kabanos, sliced, or pepperoni
- 50g grated mozzarella
To serve
- 2 dill pickles, finely sliced (optional)
- 1 tbsp chives, sliced
- ketchup
Method
- STEP 1
Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Bake the baguettes on a baking tray for 8-10 mins, then leave to cool.
- STEP 2
Heat 2 tsp of the butter and 1 tsp of the oil in a pan over a low heat and cook the chopped onion for 5 mins until soft. Stir in the mushrooms, turn the heat to medium and cook for 5-10 mins more until the veg is soft and the mushroom liquid has evaporated. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1-2 mins until soft. Season, then stir in the mayonnaise and remove from the heat.
- STEP 3
Halve the baguettes lengthways, then return to the baking tray, cut-side up and spread over the mushroom mixture, then sprinkle over the cheddar, ham, kabanos and mozzarella. Bake for 8-10 mins, or until the cheese has melted and turned golden.
- STEP 4
Meanwhile, heat the remaining butter and oil in a pan over a medium heat and fry the sliced onions for 5 mins until golden and soft. Remove from the heat and set aside. Once the pizzas are cooked, top with the caramelised onions, dill pickles (if using), the chives and a zig-zag drizzle of ketchup.
