JAMIE LAING’S STRAWBERRY, GOATS CHEESE AND BALSAMIC PIZZA
“#DoMoreThanPour is about combining two great British passions – tennis and cooking. For me, it is about having the right ingredients in the fridge to experiment, try something new and create delicious dishes that bring people together. A surprisingly different dish, my strawberries and cream pizza does exactly that!”

Instructions
- To make the dough, evenly combine the flour, salt, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl.
- Mix together the oil and water.
- Gradually add the liquid to the flour, mixing continuously with a wooden spoon until you have a soft dough.
- Tip out on a lightly floured work surface and knead for 5mins until smooth and elastic. Cover with a clean tea towel and leave to rest for 15mins.
- Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and preheat a heavy, large baking tray.
- On a lightly dusted sheet of a baking parchment roll the pizza dough into a 30cm circle.
- Mix the goats cheese with the Elmlea Double until smooth then spread out over the pizza base. Top with the strawberries, mozzarella and season with freshly ground black pepper.
- Using the parchment, slide the pizza onto the preheated baking tray and bake in the oven for 20-25mins until golden, bubbling and the base is crisp.
- Top with the fresh basil and drizzle with balsamic glaze to serve.
