Pizza Bombs

So my love of pizza has brought me on the path of something truly delicious.

Pizza Bombs

Mostly known as Pizza Bomba but I think Pizza Bombs perfectly sums up these beautiful doughy spheres.
Pizza Bombs basically are balls of pizza dough with mozzarella and tomato sauce in the middle. How amazing does that sound??

To make 4 Pizza Bombs you will need

For the dough;
175g Pizza Dough
1 tsp of olive oil
100ml of Luke warm water

For the middle;
One packet of mozzarella
Passata
Basil
Crushed Garlic
Chilli
Salt & Pepper

To start prepare your dough by mixing the dough, oil and water and kneading until it feels firm. Leave to settle for 30 minutes.

For the sauce simply add 150ml of passata with a sprinkling of basil, 1 tsp crushed garlic and chilli to taste. You can add as much of this as you like depending on how spicy you want your sauce. I like mine with a kick so added a fair bit of chilli .

Once you've waited 30 minutes, rip your dough into 4 equal parts, they should be the size of limes in your hand. Then place onto a flour dusted surface and roll out until it's round and has the thickness of a pound coin.

Cup your hand and place the dough into it, making a clear dip for you to add your fillings into. Using a tablespoon of sauce and a torn off piece of mozzarella, add into the cupped dough and fold together. Sealing the edges to make sure you get no leakages.

Place in the oven for ten minutes on some grease proof paper.

Once out, enjoy! Who woulda thought it eh? A mini bite of pizza heaven!

Of course you can experiment a bit with this, adding shredded pepperoni or chicken to add another dimension to this treat.
I can assure you that your friends will be impressed by this. A great treat for a dinner party.
