Ingredients
- 300 g pizza dough Homemade or store-bought
- 12 small meatballs Precooked
- 150 g tomato sauce
- 100 g mozzarella cheese Grated
- 1 tsp oregano Dried
- 1 tsp olive oil
- basil leaves Fresh for garnish
- salt and black pepper Adjust to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan) or 392°F (356°F fan).
- Divide the pizza dough into 12 equal portions and roll them into round balls.
- Flatten each dough ball into a small circle with your hands, creating a small pizza base.
- Place a precooked meatball in the centre of each dough circle.
- Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the meatball, pinching to seal it. Ensure the meatball is fully enclosed by the dough.
- Place the meatball-filled dough balls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- Brush the tops of the dough balls with olive oil for a golden finish.
- Spoon a little tomato sauce over each meatball sub bite and sprinkle with grated mozzarella cheese.
- Season each bite with dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the dough is golden brown, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
- Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
