Pizza Bismarck (Breakfast Pizza)

Nothing says comfort like a pizza, even a simple Margherita. But the satisfaction can run much deeper when your pizza is made with fresh, handmade bases and quality toppings.

We recently had to create a pizza exclusively for Irish Country Magazine readers. A lot of recipe ideas came and went, but the idea of a cracked egg on top of our pizza bases stuck with us. We knew we wanted to create a really tasty pizza, so began thinking about flavours and textures. This is our take on a Pizza Bismarck. Perfect for a lazy Saturday/Sunday brunch with a nice glass of Prosecco!

Ingredients :

  • 1 Pizza da Piero pizza base

  • 8 Smoked Pancetta strips

  • 100g Salsa Tartufata Truffle and Mushroom Sauce (we got this from Italicatessen)

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tin of Porcini Mushrooms (or any fresh sautéed mushrooms)

  • Handful of fresh rocket

  • 1 pack of fresh Buffalo Mozzarella

Method :

1 - Spread the pizza sauce on the base

2 - Lay out the Pancetta strips leaving rom in the middle for the egg

3 - Scatter a handful of Mushrooms over the Pancetta

4 - Using a spoon, dot the Salsa Tartufata over the pizza

5 - Crack the egg into the middle

6 - Bake in oven at highest temp for 3 - 5 minutes. The crust should be crispy but not burnt.

7 - Remove from the oven and garnish with the rocket and mozzarella.
