Stu's home made pizza.

It wasn't long before those amazing pizza bases came out again after all! But this time as pizzas not just garlic bread, though we did have some garlic bread too! He makes this dough sound like it is the easiest thing in the world! I always see some yeast rising in a jug and then flour, and he does say he uses a little semolina aswell in there. By the time I come to see him rolling it all out it is co-operating religiously with him! Unlike the attempts I have with store bought dough, this stuff moves wherever he wants it to go and isn't sticky or anything, I definitely going to be procuring the recipe before I leave so we can at last use our pizza stone!

We ate outside on the patio and the pizzas were cooked on the bbq right there, so we ate one at a time while they were hot, amazing!

This was a tomato based, cheesy garlic bread. The mozzarella was a cheaper variety that was bought shredded, you know the kind. Chef wasn't impressed with it but it was a good way to use it, I loved it, though when the real mozzarella came out I was blown away! This tied us over for the real deals!

Topped with tasty chorizzo that had been fried perfectly, tender bocconcini, green onions and then once it was cooked further topped with fresh basil and rocket that had been tossed in balsamic - this was a master piece. It is common over here in Oz to find pizzas covered in rocket, I love it, it really makes it a whole rounded meal, especially when it is a thin crust, top quality toppings, not drowning in cheese and then the leafy matter, you can't go wrong! We had a very tasty Margueritta pizza too that had the same lovely bocconcini on it and even some fresh tomatoes, same post bbq topping of fresh basil and rocket. The texture was spot on, crispy base, yet still a bit of give in the centre, I was well impressed and thoroughly pleased with myself to be experiencing it all!

Last but not least a simple garlic bread on a pizza base, where you can really appreciate the quality base and lovely garlic and butter flavours. What a perfect dinner at Casa Hannah, eating food right off the barbie under a glorious Oz night sky.
