And the products necessary for it will certainly be found in any refrigerator. Heart-shaped pizza, the photo of which is presented in this article, differs from the usual one only in shape.
- The very first thing to do is prepare a dough for the dough. We take a bowl, pour a bag of dry yeast there, dilute it with warm water, add sugar (so that the yeast rises) and mix well. Next, cover it all with a towel slightly moistened in water and set it in a warm place for about 30 minutes. The sign that the dough is ready should be bubbles protruding on the surface.
- After this, pour out the remaining flour, add water and knead the dough. Then you need to put it in a bowl greased with oil, cover with the same damp towel and leave to rise for an hour. During this time, periodically knead the dough with the addition of flour.
- As soon as the dough has significantly increased in volume, we take a rolling pin and begin to roll it into a thin layer. In order to give a heart shape, you can use special molds. Just apply them to the dough, push it - and the heart is ready. But those who do not have them should not despair. For example, a printed stencil from the Internet is suitable. If this is not the case, you can just cut it out with a knife on the eye. This is not difficult.
- When the base is ready, proceed to the filling. Lubricate the dough with ketchup or tomato paste with spices and garlic. Next, we cut the ham (sausage, chicken), tomatoes, olives, onions, and three cheese on a coarse grape into thin slices. After that, lay out all the ingredients on a greased base and sprinkle abundantly with grated cheese.
- Our heart-shaped pizza goes to an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 20 minutes. Over time, you need to make sure that the dish does not burn out. When the cheese is well melted, you can take out the food and delight your loved ones!
A heart-shaped pizza, the recipe of which is very simple, is prepared very quickly. Anyone can do it. The main thing is to add a piece of love and tenderness, as well as a little imagination, and then your romantic dinner will be remembered for a long time. Be happy and love each other!
