Step 4: Place the dough over the baking tray lined with parchment paper. Spread the tomato pulp over the dough and sprinkle with oregano and half of the grated parmesan cheese. Garnish with ham slices cut into pieces, mozzarella chunks and sprinkle with the remaining grated cheese.

If you want to add a little more flavor, season the pizza with a drizzle of olive oil.
