Preparation - 15 minutes + waiting time
Start with the pizza dough, make enough to make 2 pizzas. You can also use store-bought pizza dough, but homemade is even more delicious. Pre-heat the oven to 210 degrees celsius or 410 degrees fahrenheit.
Dust your work surface and rolling-pin with flour. Roll the pizza dough until you have a round pizza and transfer to the oven tray. Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves and combine them in a bowl with passata and a handful of dried oregano.
Finely chop the fresh basil and also add it to the sauce and season with pepper and salt. Divide the sauce over the pizza crust, but keep the edges clear of sauce and cover with grated mozzarella.

Finishing the pizza Margherita - 20 minutes
Bake the pizza for about 15 minutes, the exact time depends on your oven. Check if the crust is also crunchy at the middle and repeat the above for the second pizza.
Transfer the pizza from the oven and divide in equal pieces, finish with a few more basil leaves if you like. Enjoy!
