Great recipe, I added mushrooms, yellow pepper, spring onion, black olives, anchovies, and sliced courgettes, my husband loved it too.
Almost as good as the real thing! The slices are “pick up-able” Great served with salad.
Ingredients
• for the base
• half a medium cauliflower (about 400g)
• 20g ground almonds
• 20g freshly grated parmesan
• 1 egg
• salt, pepper and oregano
• for the topping
• half a tin good quality tinned chopped tomatoes
• squeeze tomato puree
• salt, pepper oregano/basil
• 100g grated mozzarella
Method
Whizz the cauliflower into "rice" in a food processor
Place in a covered bowl and microwave for 5 mins
(warning, this smells pretty nasty, but don't panic!)
Remove cover and allow to cool
When cool, put in a clean tea towel and squeeze as much moisture out as you can (this is really important if you want to avoid a soggy bottom!)
Beat the egg and add the cauliflower, almonds, parmesan, and seasoning. You should end up with a crumbly but dryish mixture.
Tip this onto a baking tray lined with greased baking parchment and form the mixture into a pizza base with slightly raised edges.
Bake at 180 for about 25-30 until nicely coloured.
Whizz the tomatoes, puree and seasoning until smooth.
Spread over the base and sprinkle the grated cheese.
Return to the oven until the cheese is bubbling and brown.
Obviously you can add additional toppings if you wish!
