Steak & Blue Cheese Pizza

Ingredients

Seared Rump Cap:

Pizz Dough:

Method

1. Evenly spread pizza sauce onto base working from the inside to the outside leaving a 1-2cm for the crust.
2. Evenly spread cheese over the tomato base, working from the outside inwards to the center.
3. Top the pizza with caramelized onion, halved heirloom tomatoes, garlic and 1/3 of the blue cheese crumbled around base.
4. Bake in oven @250°C for 6 mins.
5. Slice pizza into 8 equal slices.
6. Sear, rest and slice rump cap steak into 6-8 pieces, place evenly around the top of the cooked pizza.
7. Crumble over the existing blue cheese and garnished with fried rosemary tips for crunch and texture.

Seared Rump Cap:

1. On a hot grill or griddle pan seal the rump cap, approx. 2 mins on all four sides.
2. Leave to rest for 5-7 mins.
3. In a hot skillet, add the butter and the rump cap steak along with garlic and thyme.
4. Spoon the bubbling butter over the rump cap to bring the steak up to temperature.
5. Slice into 100g portions per pizza.

Pizza Dough:

1. Sieve the flour/s and salt onto a clean work surface and make a well in the middle.
2. In a jug, mix the yeast, sugar, and oil into 650ml of lukewarm water and leave for a few minutes, then pour into the well.
3. Mix and Knead dough until you have a smooth, springy dough.
4. Place the ball of dough in a large flour-dusted bowl and flour the top of it. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and place in a warm room for about an hour until the dough has doubled in size.
5. Remove the dough to a flour-dusted surface, and knock back the dough. You can either use it immediately or keep it, wrapped in cling wrap, in the fridge (or freezer) until required.
6. If using straight away, divide the dough up into as many little balls as you want to make pizzas – this amount of dough is enough to make about six to eight medium pizzas.
7. Roll the dough out into rough circles, about 0.5cm thick, and place them on slightly larger pieces of olive-oil-rubbed and flour-dusted pizza trays.
