Perfect for a supper with friends, this shallot, cherry tomato and mascarpone pizza is easy and quick to make; the shallots can be prepared ahead of time, then simply throw everything in together at the last minute.
Ingredients (serves 2)
12 shallots, peeled and halved
1 tbsp olive oil
1 ready-made pizza base (or use flatbreads)
100g mascarpone cheese
12 cherry tomatoes, halved
25g Godminster Cheddar cheese, grated
Rocket leaves, to serve
Method
Preheat the oven to 200°c. Place the shallots in a frying pan, add the olive oil and cook gently until softened and beginning to brown, approximately 10-15 minutes. Let cool a little.
Spread the pizza base with the mascarpone cheese, top with the shallots, cherry tomatoes and the grated cheese.
Cook for 10-15 minutes until golden and melting, and serve straight from the oven sprinkled with rocket.
