Serves: 4
Ingredients
To make Cauliflower Pizza, you'll need:
FOR THE PIZZA BASE: - Grated whole cauliflower
- 75g almond flour
- 3 tsp. dried oregano
- 3 free range eggs, beaten
- Himalayan sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to season
FOR THE PIZZA TOPPING: - 1 courgette, shaved with a potato peeler
- 50g grated mozzarella
FOR THE TOMATO SAUCE: - 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 400g tinned tomatoes, finely chopped
- 5 sprigs of basil, leaves picked
- Freshly ground salt and pepper to season
Method
FOR THE TOMATO SAUCE:- Place the oil in a pan, then place the pan over a medium heat.
- Add in onion and garlic and sauté for 3-4 minutes.
- Mix in the basil, tomatoes, salt and pepper.
- Turn the heat down, cover and simmer for approximately 20 minutes.
FOR THE BASE & TOPPING: - Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 6 or 200°C.
- Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
- Finely grate the cauliflower and mix it together with the almond flour, oregano, salt and pepper.
- Move the mix all in to one volcano shaped pile, hollow out the centre, and crack the eggs in.
- Fold this mix together with your hands until it creates a dough.
- Transfer to the greaseproof paper and form into a pizza base by flattening the dough by hand. Ensure you make the base as even as possible edges slightly higher so that the topping does not just fall off.
- Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven.
- Remove from the oven and cover with the tomato sauce, shaved courgette, and grated mozzarella, then return to the oven for a further five minutes.
- Your meal is now ready to enjoy!
