Homemade Ham and Mushroom Pizza used to be first on the Italian takeaway menu. Until I learnt how easy it is to make my own pizzas. I purchase pre made pizza bases but have made my own dough as well. Over the years, I have tried different pizza base sauces instead of the traditional tomato one. This recipe uses one of my favourites, white miso, brown sugar and dark soy sauce mix. The flavour is amazing and goes so well with the smoked ham and mushrooms.

Ingredients
For the Topping
- 50 g chestnut mushrooms wipe/thinly sliced
- 100 g mozzarella cheese torn into small chunks
- 100 g smoked ham thin slices
- 30 g Parmesan optional
- 1 tbsp olive oil
For the Sauce
- 2 tbsp white miso
- 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
Instructions
- Add the white miso, dark soy and brown sugar in a small bowl and mix well.
- Place the pizza base on a flat surface and brush the miso sauce combination over the base. Don’t use too much as the base will become soggy.
- Add the chestnut mushrooms, mozzarella and smoked ham liberally over the pizza base. Drizzle the olive oil over the everything to help with cooking.
- Transfer the pizza base and parchment paper onto the pre heated baking tray (Creates a lovely crispy bottom). This is where I grate a little parmesan cheese on top for that extra hit.
- Place the tray with pizza in the oven for 15 minutes. However, check after about 12 minutes. The crust should be golden brown and the cheese bubbling.
- Sit down and enjoy with a cold beer or glass of chilled white.
