Remove the dough from the packet then place on a wooden board. Cover with a cloth and leave in a warm area for 1 hour to prove.
Preheat the oven to 200 C. Dust the dough with a little flour then push out into a 23cm round. Drizzle a little oil and semolina onto the base of an oven tray. Place the dough onto the tray then drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil, dried oregano and a pinch of salt. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden and crisp.

Mix all the relish ingredients together in a bowl.
Spread the base of the pizza with ricotta in an even layer. Drape over the mortadella then sprinkle with some of the relish. Grate over Parmesan cheese and top with chillies if using. Slice then serve.
