Frying pan pizza

I originally got this recipe from Pizza pilgrims, a great restaurant chain in London. It’s the best results I’ve got at home for matching the sheer heat of a proper pizza oven to produce proper crispy thin based Italian pizzas. No thick crust here.
Take care with the hot frying pan - it’s really easy to get burnt!
Great trick to get pizzas close to pizza oven results at home
