Cooking Steps
Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
Grate the Cheddar cheese.
In a small bowl, combine the tomato puree and sun-dried tomato paste.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the sausage meat and fry until browned, 5-6 mins.
Use a spoon to break up the meat as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Pop the naans onto a baking tray. Divide the tomato sauce between them and spread with the back of a spoon, leaving a 1cm border.
Top with the sausage meat, then sprinkle over the cheese.
When the oven is hot, bake your naanizzas on the top shelf until the cheese is golden and bubbling, 6-7 mins.
In a medium bowl, combine the balsamic vinegar, sugar and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for both amounts).
Cut the tomato into 1cm chunks and add to the dressing.
When your naanizzas are ready, add the rocket to the bowl and toss to coat. TIP: Don't add them too early or the leaves will go soggy.
Transfer the sausage naanizzas to your plates.
Serve the rocket and tomato salad alongside.
Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The sausage and naan combination wins many over, though the tomato sauce can taste sharp or overpowering for some.
- Ease of prep: This is a genuinely quick and simple cook, and a great one to make with children.
- Suggestions: The tomato sauce divides opinion — try spreading it more thinly, adding a splash of passata to loosen it, or stirring in mixed herbs or garlic to round out the flavour. Adding extra toppings such as peppers, onions, or mushrooms is a popular way to boost both flavour and substance.
- Next-day meals: Some find the portions on the lighter side, making it better suited to lunch; adding a side such as chips or extra salad helps make it a more satisfying dinner.
- Cheese: Consider using mozzarella instead of Cheddar for a more classic pizza finish, and a little extra cheese helps balance the generous amount of sausage meat.
