2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tin chopped tomatoes
1 tsp sugar
200g/7¼oz bocconcini (small mozzarella balls), halved
½ tsp dried oregano
2 small (20cm/8in) pizza bases (make your own dough or buy ready-made)
extra virgin olive oil to serve
Preheat the oven to 220C/428F/Gas 7.
Heat the olive oil in a pan and gently fry the onion and garlic until soft.
Add the tomatoes and sugar and bring them to boiling point. Reduce the heat and simmer until the tomato mixture thickens. Remove from the heat, season to taste and allow to cool.
Spread the cool tomato sauce over the pizza base. Scatter over the bocconcini and the oregano. Bake the pizza for 8-10 minutes or until the rims are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil to serve.
