Persian Sosis Pizza: A Flavorful Twist on a Classic Favorite

Pinar’s Persian Sosis Pizza is a delicious fusion of her classic pizza flavors with a Middle Eastern twist. This recipe features a crispy, golden crust topped with a unique chipotle mayo bbq sauce, a generous layer of gooey cheese, and slices of Persian-style sausages (sosis), which add an intricately spiced and savory flavor. A sprinkle of basil and a drizzle of mayonnaise—common in Iranian street-style pizza—brings everything together for a satisfying bite. Perfect for a cozy night in or sharing with friends, this pizza is a must-try for anyone who loves bold flavors and a comforting homemade meal.

Also please note that the sauce for this pizza is slightly different than my other pizza recipe. But they are both equally delicious and I recommend trying both ❤️ This recipe is not completely accurate to the original street-style Persian pizza, but I am working on a recipe that is more authentic. Hope you enjoy!!
