Method

  1. Heat the grill (broiler) to high and line a large tray with foil. Lay the pitas on the tray and grill for 1 minute to firm up the tops.

  2. Mix the passata and oregano. Spread about 1 tablespoon over each pita, leaving a thin border.

  3. Scatter over the mozzarella, then top with the salami, cherry tomatoes and olives.

  4. Grill on the middle shelf for 5 to 7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling with golden spots and the edges are crisp. Ovens vary, so check after 4 minutes.

  5. Rest for 1 minute so the cheese sets a little, then tear over the basil and serve.

Tips

  • Let kids build their own: set out bowls of toppings and grill them all together.
  • For vegetarian, skip the salami and add sliced mushroom, capsicum (bell pepper) or baby spinach; check the mozzarella uses non-animal rennet.
  • Use gluten-free wraps or pitas for a gluten-free version; they crisp faster, so start checking at 3 minutes.
