Preparing Mayo Potato Pizza
Preheat your kitchen oven to approximately 500 degrees.
Roll out the dough to either slightly smaller than your pizza stone (if you have one) or on a metal tray for the kitchen oven.
Alternatively, if you have a pizza oven, roll out to be smaller than your pizza peel.
First, spread the sauce around. This pizza calls for Mayonnaise. Spread the Mayonnaise evenly using the back of a large spoon or the blunt side of a knife.
You should start by adding the largest ingredients, then work your way down. The last is any cheese topping, such as Mozzarella, which you should evenly cover the other toppings with, and then finally any herbs.
The toppings to include on this pizza are;
- Sausage
- Baked Potato Slices
- Corn

Mayonnaise (aka Mayo) typically contains Oil, eggs, and an acid, such as Vinegar or lemon Juice. There are a few healthy elements to Mayo, such as vitamin E, for heart health, and vitamin K, for blood clotting. It can also be made with healthy omega-3 fatty acids.
Whilst not a typical ingredient, Mayonnaise goes really well with any Pizza that has savory toppings and Tomato sauce base. It’s great on a meatlovers, Pepperoni pizza or four cheese pizza.
