It is so easy to create your favourite version of pizza right now in your own kitchen. The ready-made crusts remove the daunting task of preparing pizza dough, and it can be topped with virtually anything, from special ingredients to leftovers, with sauce or without.

Now anyone can make a pizza at home, even a novice cook, and we’re here to make that happen,” said Randall Tan, Brand Manager of Mission Foods South Asia.

Mission Foods partnered with Italian Chef considered a maestro in his field, Chef Federico Michielleto, of Marble 8 and Marini’s on 57 fame. Chef Federico held an exclusive Masterclass and imparted tips and tricks from his 25 years of experience on how to create the best pizzas based on his most sought after recipes.

At the Masterclass, Chef Federico adeptly demonstrated Tandoori Chicken Pizza with Sour Cream and Onion, Tom Yam Prawn Pizza with Pineapple and Apple Strudel Pizza with Pecans and Cream Custard. Although the toppings were delicious, the pizza crusts held their own, lending a crispy texture, and a delicate yet extremely flavourful dough, pulling all the ingredients together.

• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
