Prepare the dough. If you choose our dough you have less fat and calories. We calculated the nutrition facts according to our dough recipe.
During the resting time you can prepare the potatoes. Peel, wash and pat dry them with absorbent kitchen paper. Slice them finely crossways. Put the potato slices in a non-stick frying pan together with 3 tablespoons olive oil and rosemary. Season to taste with salt and cook over a gentle flame until tender. Stir frequently but with delicacy with a wooden spoon.
When the dough has risen, divide it into four pieces and, on a lightly floured surface, roll out each piece. You can obtain the shape you want: rectangular or round. The doses are enough for four 30 cm (12in) round baking sheets if you like crunchy pizza but if you prefer soft pizza use only two baking sheets.
Oil the baking sheets with the remaining olive oil. Transfer every portion of dough to a baking sheet.
Arrange the potatoes over the top of the two pizzas and allow to rise about 30-40 minutes in a warm place.
Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F) and cube the mozzarella cheese. Bake the pizzas for about 10-15 minutes, then remove them from the oven and arrange the cubed mozzarella cheese over the top. Bake again for about 5 minutes. Cooking times are indicative; everyone can adjust them to his oven.
Serve hot or warm.
