Broccoli pizza - brocizza!
 
 
Author::
Recipe type: Vegetarian
Ingredients:
  • ¾ cup of finely chopped broccoli head.
  • 2 eggs
  • ¾ cup of grated cheese, not packed down, plus extra for topping. I use Vegusto mild-aromatic vegan cheese (delicious, but be warned it contains nuts), although it works just as well with normal cheese.
  • Approximately 3 tbs of tomato paste (I use Global Organics, which is 100% tomato, no salt or other unnecessary extras).
  • Toppings. My favourites are finely sliced mushroom, zucchini, tomato (fresh or sundried), herbs and spring onion, but use your imagination.
  • 1-2 tsp Coconut oil for cooking the base.
Method:
  1. Finely chop the head of the broccoli (you know, the bit that looks like the trees leaves), leaving the stalks for other recipes.
  2. Grate the cheese.
  3. Combine the broccoli with the eggs and cheese.
  4. Heat the coconut oil in a small frying pan (16cm diameter).
  5. Pour the mixture into the pan and flatten until it reaches the edge all around the pan.
  6. Cook on medium heat until it is firm enough to flip over, as you would a pancake - a lid helps. If for some reason it is too soft to turn over you can put it under the grill for a minute or two and then flip it (or just grill, especially for larger pans or if you experience fear of flipping).
  7. Once it is cooked on both sides remove it from the frying pan and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  8. Spread tomato paste on top as you would any pizza.
  9. Add toppings and then finish it off with some extra grated cheese.
  10. Grill until the cheese is beginning to brown.
  11. Enjoy!
