Method
step 1
Heat the oil in a small saucepan over a low heat and fry the onion with a pinch of salt for 10 mins, or until softened. Add the garlic and oregano and fry for 1 min more. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato purée and ½ tsp sugar, plus some seasoning. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 10 mins, stirring often. After 10 mins, blitz everything together with a hand blender. Tip in the beans and simmer for 5 mins more.
step 2
Heat the grill to high. Arrange the bread slices in a single layer on a baking tray and grill on one side until lightly toasted. Flip over and top each piece of toast with the bean mixture, pieces of mozzarella and slices of pepperoni or ham, if using. Slide under the hot grill for 3 mins, or until the cheese has melted and is lightly golden in spots. Scatter with basil leaves before serving.
