Margherita is the original pizza flavour, with just three toppings – tomato, basil and mozzarella; a simple, but sublime combination!

Here I give you a great recipe for home-made pizza dough – it’s fun to make, and if you’re not going to use it all at once, you can always freeze some of it (rolled out into bases and wrapped well in cling film) for another day. Use buffalo mozzarella cut into slices for these Margherita pizzas if you want, or regular mozzarella is great too. Pizza stones are really handy for this recipe to get the blisters on the bottom of the dough that taste so good – if you don’t have pizza stones then you can use oven trays, just make sure they’re preheated!
