Cooking steps
  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 475°F and place a pizza stone or heavy baking sheet inside to heat thoroughly.

  2. 2

    Peel the potatoes and slice them as thinly as possible using a mandoline or sharp knife; soak the slices in cold water for 15 minutes to remove excess starch.

  3. 3

    On a floured surface, stretch the pizza dough to a 12-inch round; transfer to a piece of parchment paper for easier handling.

  4. 4

    Pat the potato slices dry, then toss them with 1 tbsp olive oil, half the kosher salt, and half the rosemary.

  5. 5

    Brush the shaped dough with the remaining olive oil, sprinkle with black pepper, and layer the potato slices evenly, overlapping slightly; distribute mozzarella and the rest of the rosemary on top.

  6. 6

    Carefully slide the pizza (still on the parchment) onto the preheated stone or baking sheet; bake for 13–17 minutes, until potatoes are just golden at edges and crust is crisp.

  7. 7

    Finish with a final sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste after baking, then cool briefly before slicing and serving.
