Method

  • step 1

    Heat a large frying pan and crumble in the mince. Fry over a high heat for 8 mins until completely browned. Pour in the tomato sauce and leave to bubble, uncovered, for 15 mins until thickened. Taste and season if you need to.

  • step 2

    Heat the grill. Cut the baguette in half lengthways, then cut the halves into 2 pieces. Place the bread, cut-side up, on a baking tray and grill for 2-3 mins until lightly toasted. Remove from the grill and divide the mince between the pieces. Scatter over the torn pieces of mozzarella.

  • step 3

    Grill for 3-4 mins more, until the cheese is bubbling and golden. Scatter with the basil and serve with a salad, if you like.

This was nice and easy with good amount of flavour, I added butter and garlic to the baguette and toasted before adding the toppings.

I didnt use a ready sauce but a tin of tomatoes and seasoning myself as I might for a chilli (without the beans) Left this to reduce so it wasn't too sloppy. Also used cheddar as that was what I had. Was nice but not amazing. Would do again for a change of pizza.

My feeling is the cooking times were totally inaccurate for this recipe, but I liked the results once times were amended. For my full blog including a picture, go to http://www.badzilla.co.uk/Good-Food--Sloppy-Joe-Pizza-Bread

very good- probably could have used a tomato puree instead of pasta sauce which would have been less wet- but went down a treat.
