We’re looking to make use of delicious cauliflower florets with a creative, tasty and easy pizza recipe that promises to replicate the real deal with its delightfully crispy base and endless topping possibilities.
Ingredients
700g cauliflower (approx 1 medium head)
1 egg whisked
50g grated parmesan
40g grated mozzarella
Suggested toppings
Tomato paste or passata
Sicilian pitted olives
Spicy chorizo slices
Cherry tomatos
Fresh spinach
Thyme sprigs or chopped basil
Method
1. Heat oven on fan bake at 215 degree Celsius.
2. Blitz cauliflower florets in a food processor until it resembles the consistency of breadcrumbs.
3. Place chopped florets into a microwave safe bowl and bake for 7-8 minutes until the cauliflower is very tender. Drain the excess moisture with a sieve, pushing the liquid out with a wooden spoon until it is mostly dry before allowing it to cool on paper towels.
4. In a bowl, whisk the egg and combine the finely grated parmesan, mozzarella and season to taste, add in the dry cauliflower and stir (note, if it is too dry, add another egg).
5. Once combined, pat the mixture into the pan, and bake for 5-10 minutes before adding desired toppings and cooking for a further 10-15 minutes.
