Ingredients
- 2 cups self-raising flour
- 60g cold butter, chopped
- 2 tsp caster sugar
- ¾ cup milk
- 2 tbs chopped parsley
- 3 cups grated mozzarella cheese
- 100g shaved ham, chopped
- 450g can crushed pineapple, drained
- ½ cup pizza sauce
- ½ small red onion, finely sliced

Method
- Preheat the oven 180°C. Grease and line a 20cm x 30cm lamington tin with baking paper.
- Place flour, butter and sugar in a food processor and pulse until well combined. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Make a well in the centre of the flour mix. Add the milk, parsley, ½ a cup of mozzarella, ham and the pineapple to the mix. Season well and mix to form a soft, sticky dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a well floured surface and gently knead it together. Gently roll it into a 20cm x 30cm rectangle and press it level into the prepared tin.
- Spread the dough with pizza sauce.
- Sprinkle with a cup of the mozzarella sauce. Top with onion and capsicum.
- Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella. Bake for 30 minutes or until turned golden brown. Stand in the tin for 10 minutes.
- Remove from the tin and cut in half lengthways. Cross cut each half into 3cm wide sticks.
Notes
- Delicious warm or cold – don’t forget a pot of dipping sauce!
