Quick and Easy Pizza

January 5, 2012 By Delia

Flatbread pizza is a great alternative to traditional pizza crusts. It has the same tasty taste and sometimes even more flavor. If you cannot find flatbread pita bread will do. You can also make small individual pizzas too. Add more toppings if desired.

 

Serves 2-3

Ingredients:

3 garlic cloves, crushed

2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

2 tablespoons finely chopped chives

1 tablespoon grated Parmesan chees

2 tablespoons finely chopped pine nuts

3 tablespoons tomato paste

2 large Lebanese flatbreads or large pita breads

1/2 medium sized capsicum, seeded and sliced thinly

1 tomato, seeded and sliced

1 small white onion, chopped

100g button mushrooms, thinly sliced

2 slices sweet ham, sliced into strips

60g grated cheddar cheese

 

Preheat the oven at 180C and line two oven trays with foil.

Next combine the garlic, parsley, chives, Parmesan cheese, pine nuts and tomato paste in a small mixing bowl. Stir until it becomes smooth. Spread this mixture evenly on the flatbreads.

Top the flatbreads with the capsicums, tomato slices, onions, mushrooms and ham. Sprinkle cheese on top. Bake them for 20 minutes or until the cheese melts and the bread is crisp. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.

Garlic Naan Bread

March 3, 2011 By Delia

Naan bread is delicious Indian flat bread that is similar to a pita. It is eaten alone or with other dips and dishes. It is best eaten with curry dishes or stews.

 

Ingredients:

2 cups all purpose flour

1 pinch baking powder

1 tablespoon dry yeast

2 tablespoons plain yogurt

1 tablespoon white sugar

1/2 cup warm water

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt to taste

3 cloves garlic, chopped

Butter

 

Dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it stand for 2 minutes.

While waiting for the yeast, combine the flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, olive oil and yogurt in a bowl. Mix well until all the ingredients are well blended.

Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture and knead for 5 minutes. The consistency should be sticky. Add more water if it is dry. Make a ball out of the dough and cover it with a cheese cloth. Let it rise for 4 hours.

Preheat the oven at 200F.

Knead the bread for 2 minutes and divide it into 6 parts. Roll the parts out into circles or squares, depending on what you want.

Sprinkle garlic on the rolled out dough.

Place the dough on a hot stone plate and cook until the edges are brown. If you do not have a stone plate, you can use a lined baking tray. Bake it for 15-20 minutes or until the edges turn brown.

Butter the bread before serving. Serve warm in a bread basket.
