Prep time: 10 mins | Cook time: 15 mins | Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 ready-made naan breads
- 200 g button mushrooms, sliced
- 4 tbsp ready-made basil pesto
- 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
- ½ tsp black pepper
- Salt, to taste
- Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Heat olive oil or butter in a pan. Add the mushrooms and sauté until their moisture evaporates and they turn golden.
- Season with pepper and a little salt.
- Place the naan breads on a baking tray. Spread pesto over each naan.
- Top with sautéed mushrooms, sliced onion and mozzarella.
- Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese melts and the naan edges turn crisp.
- Garnish with fresh basil leaves. Slice and serve warm.
Quick tip: Sauté the mushrooms before topping the naan. This prevents excess moisture from making the base soggy.
Serving tip: Cut each naan pizza into small wedges for easy sharing. Add chilli flakes for guests who enjoy a little heat.
