Pizza Roll Homemade

Lovely pizza dough made thick and rolled up with the pizza topping inside. Sprinkle a bit of cheese on top and there we have the perfect pizza roll!

As I currently have a little time, I had been browsing on the web a few days ago. In need of new, challenging ideas, inspirational meals that I’ve never tried before, to impress my family with. Searching for a while unfortunately couldn’t come across too many interesting stuff. Right before I wanted to give up on it, I came upon this tempting and easy treat simply by luck at Suncakemom. The dessert seemed so tempting

on its snapshot, it required rapid actions.

It was not so difficult to imagine the way it is made, how it tastes and just how much my husband might want it. Mind you, it is quite easy to impress him when it comes to cakes. Anyways, I visited the page and then used the precise instuctions that had been combined with nice images of the method. It really makes life faster and easier. I can suppose it’s a bit of a effort to take photos in the midst of baking in the kitchen because you will often have sticky hands so I highly appreciate the effort and time she put in for making this blogpost .

With that in mind I’m encouraged presenting my very own dishes in the same way. Many thanks for the idea.

I was fine tuning the initial formula to make it for the taste of my family. I must tell you it absolutely was an incredible success. They enjoyed the flavour, the structure and loved having a delicacy such as this in the middle of a hectic workweek. They quite simply asked for lots more, many more. Thus the next time I’m not going to make the same mistake. I am going to double the amount .

This was made possible through SunCakeMom who provided the original Pizza Roll Recipe.

Bread:

Put fresh yeast into half cup of lukewarm (not hot!) milk. Set it aside whilst preparing the other ingredients.

Get a big bowl and put flour, sliced room temperature butter, egg and the lukewarm water in it.

Pour the yeasty milk into a big bowl on top of the other ingredients.

Knead the mixture well until it’s even and there’s no flour left on the edge of the bowl.

Cover the bowl and leave it in a warm place for about an hour to rise. (We can put it in the 100°F / 40°C heated oven. Be careful not to turn the heat higher than that as it would kill the yeast so the dough won’t rise.)

Filling:

In the meantime, prepare the filling. Chop tomatoes, basil, oregano, salt and olive oil in a blender.

Pour it into a saucepan, bring it to boil and simmer it in low-medium heat for about 20 minutes while stirring occasionally.

Take it off heat and set it aside. Pouring hot sauce on the dough, would make it gooey and so hard to handle that it would ruin our day.

Assembly:

After an hour waiting take dough out of the bowl onto a well-floured work surface.

Roll it into a square. Flouring underneath the dough is important as this coating will prevent it to stick down.

Spread tomato sauce evenly on top.

Roll dough up into a log.

Cut crosswise into 1″ / 2cm wide pieces.

Place the pieces apart on the baking tray.

Cover and let them rise for another half an hour. Meanwhile grate the cheese and turn the oven on to 180 C.

Sprinkle cheese on top before popping it into the oven.

Bake them for about 20 minutes or until the cheese it melted and golden brown.

Enjoy!
