A spartan and very tasty pizza without tomato sauce. Only cheese, pancetta, garlic, basil and olive oil give it a rich flavor.

This was a bit of a surprise. I was surfing the internet looking for some new pizzas to try and then happened to see lilla napoli's pizzainspiration-guide where I found their "pecorino & pancetta" variant which I thought seemed very interesting. I think their description "semi-unexpected" was what made me have to try it as I love those kinds of unexpected combinations. Of course you can trust lilla napoli and the combination was really good!
Strangely enough, I had a bit of trouble finding really thinly sliced pancetta, so I bought a whole piece and sliced it as thinly as I could myself. It turned out OK, but it would have probably been even better if I had properly sliced pancetta instead. I also reduce the amount of olive oil a little as I thought it was a bit much, but you decide for yourself what is the appropriate amount here of course.
Since I am giving the recipe for 4 pizzas and I don't have any mechanism on the site to show the recipe for smaller portions (maybe throwing something together over the weekend) so I thought I would make it a little easier by listing the toppings for one pizza:
- Mozzarella: 40g
- Pancetta: 20g
- Garlic: 5g (one clove)
- Basil: 1.5g (5 pcs)
- Pecorino: 15g
- Olive oil: 5.25g (1.2 teaspoon)
