Cauliflower Crust Pizza
A clever recipe for pizza with a healthier base made from cauliflower, making it a great way to sneak in extra vegetables.
Ingredients
- 2 heads cauliflower (about 2¼lb-2¾lb (1kg-1.2kg))
- 2 large eggs
- 7 oz mozzarella or cheddar cheese (grated)
- 4 tbsp tomato purée
- 2 tsp dried mixed herbs
- 4.4 oz ball buffalo mozzarella ((125g))
- 1 red onion (finely sliced)
- 7 oz roasted red peppers ((200g))
- 1 handful Basil leaves (to serve)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 390°F (200°C) or 355°F (180°C fan), mark 6. Cut the cauliflower into small florets and blitz in a food processor, in batches if necessary, until it resembles breadcrumbs (be careful not to purée it!). Put it in a microwaveable bowl and blast on medium for 5-6min until soft. Alternatively, boil the cauliflower florets, then chop finely once cooked.
- Transfer the cauliflower to a large bowl and stir in the eggs, grated cheese and plenty of seasoning.
