step 1
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C Fan/gas mark 7. Remove the pizza dough (1 pack) from its pack, and on a floured work surface roll into a large ball and leave to rest for 15 minutes.
step 2
Heat a splash of oil in a large frying pan with a sprinkle of salt. Sauté the leeks (2) with the thyme leaves (1 bunch) for 10 minutes until softened. Allow to cool slightly before stirring in the crème fraiche (200 g), cheddar (50 g) and vintage red fox (50 g). Beat the egg (1) and stir into the mix.
step 3
Line a 25 x 40cm oven tray with greaseproof paper. Roll out the pizza dough to form a rectangle then press this into the tray, using your fingers to push it right to the edge and stretch the dough, pressing it up the sides slightly.
step 4
Spoon over the filling then crumble the stilton (50 g) on top. Dot over the fig, apple and balsamic fruit for cheese (2 tbsp) and crumble over the pecans (50 g).
step 5
Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the dough is cooked through, and the cheese is melted and bubbling. Serve with a lemony salad.
