Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 210°C (410°F). Toss 200g diced sweet potato with 15ml olive oil, 1 tsp garlic powder, 4g sea salt, and 2g black pepper; roast on a parchment-lined sheet for 20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
  2. Step 2: Roll 400g all-purpose flour dough into a 25cm circle on a floured surface. Brush edges with oil, then spread evenly with 100g halal cheddar, 100g halal mozzarella, 50g halal gouda, and 50g crumbled halal feta.
  3. Step 3: Arrange roasted sweet potato pieces over cheese layer, then sprinkle with 5g chopped fresh thyme.
  4. Step 4: Bake at 210°C (410°F) for 12-14 minutes until cheese melts and crust is golden; check after 10 minutes to prevent burning. Let cool 3 minutes before slicing to avoid cheese pulling.
