Inspired by Peru's Italian immigrant heritage, this pizza is made by spreading a rocoto pepper cream sauce over thin dough and baking it with mozzarella. The mix of heat and creaminess offers a different experience from classic pizza.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Knead the dough

10 min

Knead the flour, yeast, warm water, olive oil and salt together until smooth.

2

Let it rise

20 min

Cover the dough and let it rise for twenty minutes.

3

Make the sauce

5 min

Blend the rocoto peppers with the cream until you have a smooth sauce.

4

Roll and top

8 min

Roll the dough out thin onto a baking tray, spread the rocoto cream sauce, and scatter the mozzarella and red onion rings on top.

5

Bake

12 min

Bake in an oven preheated to 230°C for twelve minutes, until the edges are golden and the cheese has melted.

Reminder

It is a good idea to wear gloves while handling the rocoto pepper; its heat can be uncomfortable if it gets on your skin. Allergens: contains gluten (flour) and dairy (cream, mozzarella).

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If you cannot find rocoto pepper, a mix of red chili and a pinch of cumin gives a similar flavour, though it will not fully replicate the original aroma.

Tarifte 12 dakika yazıyordu ama fırınım oldukça güçlü olduğundan kenarlar daha 9 dakikada yanmaya başladı bile. Bundan sonra fırın gücüne göre birkaç dakika erken kontrol etmek gerektiğini öğrendim.
