Cauliflower Crust Pizza Recipe

Cauliflower, Mushroom & Rocket Pizza

Ingredients

• 1 tbs chia seeds

• 1 head cauliflower (around 600g), roughly chopped with stems

• 1 egg, lightly beaten

• 2 tsp butter

• 100g mushrooms, sliced

• 2 tsp dried thyme

• 30g goats cheese feta, crumbled

• 2 tbs parmesan, finely grated

• 20g rocket

• 1 tsp olive oil

• 1 tsp lemon juice

• Salt & pepper, to taste

Method

1. Preheat oven to 200°c. Soak chia seeds in 1/4 cup of water for 15 minutes.

2. Pulse cauliflower in a food processor to form a crumb. Place in a saucepan with 1/4 cup of water and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook for about 8 minutes (or until cauliflower has softened).

3. Once cool enough to handle, place in a clean tea towel or clean disposable cloth and squeeze out all the liquid, retaining the water to use later.

4. Mix together cauli 'flour' with egg and chia seed mixture, then spread out to an oval shape on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Cook for 20 minutes, then flip pizza over and cook for another 15 minutes or until golden.

5. Heat butter in a small frypan and add mushrooms, thyme leaves, 1 tbs of cauliflower water and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-8 minutes over medium heat or until beginning to soften.

6. Scatter mushrooms over pizza base, sprinkle over both cheeses and cook for 10 minutes.

7. Toss rocket with olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and scatter over pizza to serve.
