Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 250°C (482°F) and dust the work surface or wooden board with plain flour.
2. Stretch the fresh pizza dough with your fingertips, then finish with your palm into a circle.
3. Spread a generous amount of pesto evenly over the dough.
4. Tear buffalo mozzarella by hand and scatter it over the pesto so every slice has some.
5. Sprinkle grated parmesan over the top, as much or as little as you like.
6. Slide the dough onto the pizza tray, then drizzle a small amount of extra virgin olive oil over it.
7. Bake for about 7 minutes, checking often, as the time depends on the dough thickness and how hot the oven gets.
8. Take the pizza out, place a burrata in the middle and arrange mortadella slices around it.
9. Drizzle pesto over the burrata, sprinkle crushed pistachios over everything, then cut into the burrata and press some of the cheese out.
