Method

1. Slice around 10 banana shallot onions (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.
2. Stretch the pizza dough over plenty of semolina.
3. Spread the onion confit over the base of the pizza and layer the anchovies in a criss-cross design. Add black olives to the centre of each ‘square’.
4. Pour a little basil oil over the top of the pizza.
5. Sprinkle with dried oregano.
6. Bake in your pizza oven at 500 degrees C for around 90 seconds, turning frequently.
