My first and only experience of a cheese-less potato topped pizza was more than five years ago with a cousin. When he ordered it, I was very skeptic and doubtful of pizzas without cheese. But I still remember how awesome it tasted and that we ordered another one and took it home for next day’s breakfast.
This week, my theme for the Blogging Marathon is -One vegetable three ways where I will be cooking 3 different dishes with the same vegetable ie potato. I wanted to try out some locally special vegetables but then it is the half yearly break for my daughter from school and potatoes simply had to play a dominant part of the menu these two weeks. That’s when I remembered this potato pizza and thought of giving it a shot. It’s simply divine and a must try!
Recipe source –here
Makes 2 pizzas
WHAT WE NEED
Pizza dough See here for ingredients and methodology
For toppings
Potatoes, medium size 3-4
Onion, medium 1
Olive Oil 3 tbsp
Salt & Pepper
WHAT TO DO
- Combine water and 4-5 tsp of salt in a large bowl
- Peel the potatoes and slice very thin
- Add the sliced potatoes to the salted water and set aside for 40-50 minutes
- Preheat the oven to 200C
- Grease a baking tray
- Divide the pizza dough into 2 parts
- Spread one part of the dough on the tray with your oiled fingertips
- If holes form, then pinch back the dough together and continue
- Drain the potatoes and press out as much water as possible with your hands and paper towels
- Thinly slice the onion and add it to a bowl with olive oil and pepper
- Add the potatoes to this mixture and toss well to coat
- Spread the toppings on the dough ensuring there is additional toppings around the edges since the edges tend to cook faster
- Sprinkle little salt over the toppings
- Bake for 25-30 minutes till the topping starts to turn golden brown and the crust is browned
- Once it’s cooled slightly, cut into squares
- Enjoy!
