Homemade pizza works best in a hot oven: 250 °C or your oven's maximum heat bakes the pizza crisp in 8–12 minutes. A preheated pizza stone or an upside-down baking tray adds extra crispness to the base.

The most popular toppings are minced meat with tomato sauce and mozzarella, vegetable pizza with roasted root vegetables and the classic ham and pineapple. Spread the toppings in a thin layer, as too thick a layer keeps the base from cooking through in the middle.

Pizza dough rises at room temperature in about an hour, but left to prove overnight in the fridge it develops a deeper flavour and an airier base. You can also freeze a pre-baked pizza base, so a weeknight pizza is in the oven in 10 minutes.

The minced meat can be swapped for soy mince or plant-based mince without any other changes to the recipe – the baking time stays the same. For the sauce, either a ready-made tomato sauce or a homemade one with oregano and garlic works well.

In Ruokaboksi's pizza recipes the dough ingredients and toppings come in the right portion sizes, so Friday pizza night doesn't call for a separate trip to the shop.
