To celebrate the recent relaunch of The Orange and all things Pizza we have put together a pretty mouth watering guest chef series, our Dough Diaries. August is home to Georgina hayden and her 'Greek Pizza'.
Georgina Hayden, who will be the guest chef for our Dough Series for August has named her pizza The Greek. It’s a tweak on the classic Cypriot sandwich: the halloumi lountza sub. So a tomato base, slices of lountza (Cypriot cured pork loin, like a lean aromatic bacon), something oozy like mozzarella or kaseri, slices or cubes of halloumi and touch of dried mint. Finished off with evoo and drizzle of honey.
Georgina, is the author of four hugely popular cookbooks including Nistisima and Taverns and is known for her Greek Cypriot evocative food. Her newest book Greekish is inspired by her Greek-Cypriot roots and travels. The recipes are easy, bursting with flavour and sure to be cooked on repeat. With fewer ingredients and less stress, the recipes include familiar Mediterranean classics, as well as plenty of Greek-influenced dishes with her own twists.
Her exclusive, Greek inspired pizza is sure to be a hit!
