Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 230°C (210°C for fan-assisted).
  2. In a bowl, mix 1/4 packet of chopped tomatoes, basil cream, 1/3 sachet of dried oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon of sugar. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Cut the mozzarella into thin slices and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess water.
  4. Place the naan bread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush lightly with olive oil.
Cooking
  1. Spread the tomato mixture over the naan, leaving a 2-3 cm border.
  2. Distribute the mozzarella slices evenly on top and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Bake the pizzas for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
  4. Meanwhile, cut the cucumber into thin half-moons.
  5. For the dressing, mix a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar in a salad bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the salad and cucumber just before serving.
  6. Cut the coppa slices in half and roll them to form petals for the Enchanted Rose.
Serving
  1. Serve the naan pizzas on plates, arrange the coppa roses on one side, and add a salad leaf to act as a stem. Serve the salad on the side.

Notes

Leftover naan pizza keeps well in the fridge for 2 days. Reheat in an oven or air fryer to maintain crispness. For freezing, prepare the naan with sauce and cheese only and wrap tightly in foil. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat. Avoid freezing coppa roses as they are best fresh.
