Pizza Prawns and Mushrooms

Pizza Prawn and Mushrooms
This is the Italian recipes for Pizza Sea and Mountain. We usually call this Pizza like this because we combined the sea-food, in this case the prawns, with mushrooms. The preparation is very easy and to obtain a better result you should cook the prawns and mushrooms separately and then place them on pizza. This pizza can be prepared as the traditional Italian pizza that wants on it the tomatoes and mozzarella cheese (here I showed this recipe) otherwise you can also prepare the so called white pizza or the pizza without tomatoes.

INGREDIENTS (for 2 pizza):
For the dough follow the recipe that you find here.
250 ml or 1 cup of Tomatoes puree
250 g or 1 cup of Mozzarella cheese
200 g or 1/2 cup of Mushrooms fresh or frozen (better Porcini)
150 g or 1/2 cup of Prawns
Salt
3 Tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
Oregano
Parsley

PREPARATION TIME: 15 - 20 minutes is the time you need to obtain well homogeneous dough. 4-5 hours of rising. 15 minutes of preparation, the time you need to put on pizza the dressing you like more
COOKING TIME: 20 – 25 minutes

PREPARATION
Prepare the dough for pizza as described here. Half an hour before to roll out the pizza start the preparation of the ingredients you need to flavour the pizza and preheat the oven at the maximum degree, in my oven is 250 Celsius degree (482 F) but also 300 C (572 F) is ok. Clean and cut in cubes the mushrooms, wash and clean the prawn removing the shell. When mushrooms and prawn are ready preheat in a pan 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. When the oil is hot put in the pan the mushrooms and prawn and let them cook for about 10 minutes stirring continuously.

Pizza is ready to be cooked. Bake pizza for 15 - 20 minutes. Put the pizza first in the lower part of the oven so it will cook on the bottom and then after more or less 10 minutes transfer it in the upper part so it will become crunchy on the surface. Pay attention and check the cooking time by time because according to the power of your oven the cooking can change. The ideal number of pizza to cook in a normal size oven is 2, if you put more you will need more time and you have to move the pizza continuously from one to another layer of the oven. Serve hot pizza.
