A tasty healthy pizza made from wholemeal flour. Ready in minuets.
Serves 2
Yields: 8 slices
You will need:
For the Base
Lamb Brand Wholemeal Flour, 250g
Lamb Brand Basil 1/2 tsp
Lamb Brand Oregano 1/4 tsp
Water, 300ml
Dry active yeast, 1 teaspoon
Sugar, 1/2 teaspoon
Olive oil, 2 tablespoons
For the Sauce
Tomato puree, 3 tbsp.
Mixed Italian herbs, 1 pinch
For the Topping
Grated mozzarella cheese, 150g
Grated mature cheddar cheese, 100g
Red, Green & Yellow Bell Peppers ½ of each, (thinly sliced)
Sliced cooked meat of your choice (optional) – ex. Chicken breast, minute steak.
All you have to do is:
1.Ferment the yeast by adding the yeast and sugar to 150ml warm water, then whisking till dissolved. Leave to stand for 10-15 minutes whilst it froths.
2.Add the yeast water mix to the wholemeal flour and herbs, add the olive oil and mix well. Continue to mix and add water till you achieve a stretchy dough consistency, but not sticky. (If it goes sticky add more flour).
3.Set the dough aside in a bowl covered in cling film or a damp towel for about 1 hour. Once the dough has grown to roughly twice its original size it is ready for kneading.
4.Knead or roll the dough to the correct shape/size you require, place on to a lightly oiled baking tray / pizza tray (by oiling the tray the pizza won’t stick).
5.Preheat the oven to 190°C.
6.Prepare your toppings – grill the meat and the vegetables or even stir fry.
7.Mix the Tomato puree with the herbs, then spread the mixture over the base.
8.Lay out the vegetable/meat toppings on the pizza. Then layer the mozzarella and the cheddar on top.
9.Place in the oven for 20-30 minutes or until golden.
