Recipe for a fiery Italian Pizza Diavola with spicy salami and chillies. The Diavola is also known under the name Diavolo. The name means "devil pizza".

Pizza Diavola

 275 g Pizza dough
 65 g Mozzarella
 Tomato sauce
 Hot and spicy salami
 Chili peppers to taste
 Fresh basil or Italian herbs
 Parmigiano Reggiano (Parmesan)
Optional
 Pickled hot peppers
 Garlic
 Onion
 Italian olive oil
1

Form the dough with your hands into a round pizza. Instructions for a homemade dough can be found here: Italian pizza dough. Alternatively, a store-bought dough can be used, but this does not taste as good as homemade dough.

2

Spread the dough evenly with a few tablespoons of homemade tomato sauce. Leave about 1 inch at the edge.

3

Peel the garlic and finely chop it. Cut the chili peppers into thin rings. Alternatively, chilli flakes or chilli powder can be used for the devil pizza.

4

Slice the mozzarella with a sharp knife into pieces.

5

Add the chopped garlic, chili peppers and mozzarella slices to the pizza. For a spicy taste you can add some Parmigiano Reggiano (Italian Parmesan cheese).

6

Slice hot Italian salami into thin slices and spread on the devil pizza.
