Method
Turn on the oven to 180ºC / Gas mark 4.
To prepare the base, sieve flour into a baking bowl, rub in the butter and sprinkle on the yeast.
Add the tepid water to the bowl and mix with a palette knife to a soft consistency. Knead the dough on a floured work surface and shape into a large circle. Cut a hole in the centre using a small bowl as a template. This will make the ring shape.
Spread the herb and tomato sauce over the base and arrange the topping ingredients. Cover with cheese and basil. Make a mini pizza from the cut out dough.
Cook in the oven on a stone base for 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
To make the cheese nest, heat a frying pan to a medium to high temperature, and sprinkle the grated cheese over the base. Cook until golden brown. Lift out the circle of cheese carefully with a fish slice. And place over an upside down bowl. Allow to harden. Fill with salad and drizzle with balsamic dressing.
Serve the pizza and cheese nest with chilli wedges.
