Anyone who loves pizza, here’s her cabbage version! If you do not warn consumers in advance, many may not recognize that the Foundation of a bit unconventional;)
The ingredients I brought 2 pieces, so you like to make a couple. One is right, and the second pizza to freeze. Excellent optimization of your time. If you want 1 pizza, divide all ingredients in half.
Ingredients for the base (for 2 pizzas with a diameter of 26cm):
1 large head of cauliflower (about 1kg),
100 grams of delicious cheese (Gruyere, cheddar or whatever you like),
2-3 tbsp of Parmesan cheese (Parmesan if not, can not put, but it goraaazdo delicious),
2 eggs,
3-4 tsp dried oregano/Basil/herbs of Provence,
3-4 garlic cloves,
0,5 tsp sea salt
Optional a couple of pinches of freshly ground black pepper
Optional 3-4 tbsp buckwheat/almond/whole wheat flour (to give greater hruskoci test).
If you don’t eat dairy products, instead of cheese put more flour (about 150g) 1 egg.
Ingredients for sauce:
400 gr. tomatoes in own juice or tomato trade winds,
1 Chile pepper (can be replaced with 0.5 tsp. Cayenne pepper),
1 onion medium size,
1 clove garlic,
1 tsp dried oregano/Basil/herbs of Provence,
0,5 tsp. dry thyme
A couple of pinches of salt
1 tbsp Jerusalem artichoke syrup (if tomatoes are sour)
0,5 tsp oil ghee for frying vegetables.
How to do:
Sauce. It can be made in advance or in store.
The onion and chilli finely cut into cubes, fry on medium heat until Golden on the drop of oil ghee. Add the chopped garlic, fry for another 30 seconds until garlic fragrant, then immediately add the tomatoes. If you are using tomatoes in their own juice, then mash them with a spatula.
Simmer the sauce for 15 minutes, then add the herbs and leave on the heat for another 5 minutes. Only at the very end of cooking, when the sauce Uvarov and has become thick, add salt/pepper/sweetener to taste.
The sauce is ready, but I strongly recommend to break it in a blender until smooth.
This sauce can also be used for pastaand meat dishesto sandwiches.
The pizza base out of cauliflower.
1. Rinse cabbage, remove outer leaves (you can use them for making vegetable broth) and cut into florets. The stalk is also not throw away, it is ground and goes to the cause.
2. Chop the cabbage in a blender to a wet snow. In principle, this is enough, but I have this small crumb was milled further immersion blender to puree (but he copes with it). It takes a maximum of 2 minutes, but then the basis becomes a very cool smooth texture.
3. Salt the cabbage and leave for 15-20 minutes. So it is going to give all of its juices, which will need to be carefully overcome. I do it using kitchen towel. Cauliflower contains a lot of water, no push-UPS the pizza base will be loose and wet.
4. Pressed cabbage, mix with egg, garlic, grated cheese and herbs, then optionally add the flour. Mix all ingredients until a homogeneous mass.
5. If you have a regular uncoated parchment or you bake directly on the baking sheet without paper, then grease the surface with cooking oil and lightly flour. If you have this paper here, nothing to lubricate and sprinkle do not need to it do not stick.
You can put the dough arbitrary, and can make a completely flat circle through split forms for cakes.
First snap the shape, put it on baking paper upper side (where there is no groove for the base shape), the dough it is not clogged. Carefully align closely inside, then the latch open and lift the form. In the end you have a perfect circle with a diameter of 26 cm and a thickness of about 3-4mm. I think the thickness of the dough is perfect, if you like thicker – please vary the point, but keep in mind that the thicker the layer, the harder it is grilled to crispy perfection.
6. The cake randomly prick with a fork and bake in the oven on the middle shelf for 25-30 minutes at a temperature of 190C. 180S on my cake baked through enough, it burns at 200C, 190C so – perfect. But all ovens are different.
The substrate must be rosy and elastic. Can freeze it for later use. Pizza can be prepared at once. Use any ingredients for the toppings you like.
In this case, I have 1 pizza used only ½ of tomato sauce, then a handful of cheese, half a pre-cooked chicken breast, half a sweet pepper, 4 cherry tomatoes, 2 large mushrooms and top with a couple handfuls of cheese.
Bake on top shelf for 10-15 minutes until cooked ingredients. The last couple of minutes on the grill mode. Incredibly tasty!
