    1 tb Tomato paste

    FIRST MAKE THE TOMATO SAUCE: Whiz the tomatoes, paste,

    Heat gently in a small sauce pan until thick. Add the
    basil and stir through the sauce.

    If you haven't already cooked and crumbled the sausage
    and bacon - do that now. Saute the onions in the sausage

    Spread the tomato sauce over the base, sprinkle the
    Grana Padano over that and distribute the meats, onions,
    sliced olives, mushrooms and mozarella evenly. Scatter
    some chile flakes over and pop into a 450ºF/220ºC oven
    for 10 to 12 minutes

    Before serving scatter some more Grana Padano/Parmesan
    over the hot pizza. Have chile flakes and more grated
    cheese available at table.

    Serves two nicely
