Mushroom, Brie, Garlic & Thyme Pizza

3 tbsp olive oil

300 g cup mushrooms

2 cloves garlic, sliced

3 sprigs thyme

Salt, pepper

½ brown onion, sliced

½ bunch silverbeet leaves, roughly chopped

2 x250g pizza dough (store-bought bases can be used instead)

Plain flour for dusting

1 cup grated mozzarella

150 g brie, sliced

To serve

Thyme leaves, flat-leaf parsley leaves, chilli flakes.

Preheat the oven to 240°C.

Place a large frying pan over medium–high heat and add half the olive oil, mushrooms, garlic, thyme and a good pinch of salt & pepper.

Cook, stirring often for 3 minutes to caramelise the mushrooms but do not overcook (otherwise they will dry out in the oven, on the pizza).

Transfer the mushrooms to a dish. Wipe out the pan and return to the heat.

Add the remaining olive oil, sliced onion silverbeet and a little salt and pepper. Stir fry this for 1 minute just to wilt, then transfer to a dish.

If using dough, lightly flour a bench and roll out or hand stretch the dough. Place them onto pizza trays and top with the mozzarella, brie, silverbeet & mushrooms. If using store-bought bases, skip the rolling and head straight to the topping.

Bake the pizzas for 8–10 minutes, until the crust is golden.

Serve scattered with more thyme, some parsley leaves, chilli flakes and a splash of olive oil if desired.
