They are surprisingly simple to make once you’ve defrosted the dough balls, and offer a quick and satisfying meal that’s vegetarian.

  2. 2. Prepare the dough ball as per instructions
  3. 3. Put all the ingredients for the tomato sauce together in a bowl, season with salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar if you like and mix well. Set aside until needed.

Drizzle with a little olive oil and bake in the oven on top of your preheated baking tray for 10-12 mins or until the base is puffed up and the vegan cheese has melted and is bubbling and golden in patches.
