Method
Boil sliced charlotte potatoes (around 5 pending the size for 1 pizza) for 10 / 12 mins. Drain and leave to cool and grate.
Slice around 10 banana shallots (enough for 1 pizza) with a mandolin and slowly cook in butter and olive oil until soft and brown – it should resemble an onion confit. Part way through cooking, add 3 sliced garlic cloves.
Stretch the pizza dough over plenty of semolina and drizzle with a little olive oil
Cover the pizza with shallot confit and grated potatoes. Add mozzarella, smoked pancetta and crack an egg in the centre of the pizza.
Pour a little basil oil over the top of the pizza.
Bake in your pizza oven at 500 degrees C for around 90 seconds, turning frequently.
