- Preheat oven to 220°C Fan Assist and place a baking tray in the oven to heat up.
- Place the potato, garlic, rosemary, salt and olive oil in a bowl and toss to combine.
- Place the dough on a piece of baking paper and use your hands or a rolling pin to form a rough 30cm circle. Arrange mozzarella over base, top with potato mixture and dot with pieces of pork sausage and taleggio. Season with cracked pepper.
- Transfer pizza with the baking paper onto a hot tray and bake on the middle shelf for 10-12 minutes until the potato is cooked and the base is crispy and golden.
