Mushroom & Mozzarella Pizza With Truffle Infused Oil
A delicious and moreish homemade pizza, with one of my favourite flavours! Buy a good quality pre-made pizza base and off you go. You could also use pita bread or tortillas for the base.You can choose between an oven and barbecue for this recipe – the barbecue works well to make the base super crispy.

Instructions
Preheat the barbecue or oven to 200°C conventional (180°C fan-forced).
Spread the pizza base or pita bread with the tomato paste and grated mozzarella. Bake for 15–20 minutes to get the base heated and a little crispy.
1 pizza base , 2 tablespoons tomato paste , 1 cup mozzarella cheese
Meanwhile, heat a medium frying pan over medium–high heat. Add the olive oil, butter and mushrooms and sauté for 5–7 minutes, stirring. In the last minute, add the chopped garlic and stir through. Season well.
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon butter, 4 cups mushrooms, 2 cloves garlic, sea salt & cracked black pepper
Scatter the warm mushrooms onto the pizza base. Add the sliced mozzarella pieces and sprinkle on some rosemary leaves. You can serve it like this or pop the pizza under the grill for 5 minutes. Drizzle the truffle infused olive oil over the pizza, season well and serve.
